Stephen Keshi's son expresses disappointment over FG's unfulfilled promises to honor his father
Stephen
Keshi Junior, son of former Super Eagles coach, Stephen Keshi, took to his IG
page yesterday to express his disappointment at the Federal government's
unfulfilled promises to honor his father at his father's funeral rites which
kicked off in Benin city Edo state yesterday July 28th. He wrote:
"I sat in front of
the federal government on national television a few weeks ago and they promised
they would honor pops the way he deserves. They said that he has done too much
for the country for them not to. They made us change dates to fit the federal governments
schedule. But they didn't do as promised, we aren't mad, nor sad, just
disappointed, they should be ashamed of themselves.
This
sends a terrible message to our youth that are striving to do great things for
Nigeria. The good thing is that We was raised not to ask for handouts. There
will be no more postponements, today the funeral ceremonies began in Benin, the
place he loved, where his career started. My sisters, brother and I held it
down, with the help of a few others, and now we are putting our pops to rest.
We don't owe anyone shit and we can say they owe pops everything. No salt, it
is not the people's fault, we still love Nigeria as pops did" he said
