As it was earlier reported by the Port City News, the Nigeria Football Federation have given the Super Eagles head coach Eric Chelle a deal that pays him around one hundred thousand dollars every month. This has caused a lot of people in Nigeria to talk about it online.
So many Nigerian football fans are talking about this deal on social media and they have different opinions. Some people are wondering if the Nigeria Football Federation will really pay Eric Chelle the money they promised.
The Nigeria Football Federation is now going to pay Eric Chelle around $100,000 every month as claimed, and that is twice what he used to get which was $50. The good thing about this deal is that the Nigeria Football Federation will pay the people who work with Eric Chelle not just him. Before now, Eric Chelle had to pay his assistants but the Nigeria Football Federation will take care of that.
Notwithstanding, the announcement quickly drew attention on social media, with many Nigerians sharing their thoughts on the deal.

@Chuks said: “For the first time in many years NFF has done the right thing 👍✌️ Eric Chelle over to you!”
@Christian posted: “Double portfolio for him, not sure if this is a great idea for our football, but it looks like a good idea on paper though.”
@Mr Puckolous reacted: “NFF no go pay this money last last…. The kind cutting wey go enter this money eehh… We gather dey shaa.”

While the NFF’s decision to extend Chelle’s contract has been welcomed in some quarters, the underlying scepticism about the federation’s ability to honour its financial commitments remains a familiar concern among Nigerian football fans.
