Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi has waved aside a recent query given to him by his employers, the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF).The NFF technical committee wants explanations on issues that bother on a disrespect of its authority by the Super Eagles boss.Keshi has been asked to explain why he recently went on leave earlier than a date approved for him and by so doing embarrassed the body because he was consequently absent from a reception for the CHAN Eagles organised by the countrys president.The NFF also accused Keshi of skipping a meeting with the technical committee on Tuesday to attend an event by one of the teams sponsors.But Keshi is unperturbed by the development, arguing that his primary interest is to build a strong team for the World Cup that would make Nigeria and Africa proud.He however noted that he could be forced into speaking about his fractious relationship with the NFF soon.I dont really want to comment on this because a lot of people will misinterpret what I will say. Let them (NFF) accuse me of everything, I really dont care. Keshi told Supersport.I want to concentrate on my job of building a strong team. Thats the most important thing.I pray that the work I have been doing to build a strong Nigerian team for the World Cup comes out well because it will also be great for Africa.I will not say anything about the query but when it gets to a point, I will say something.Right now, I will be quiet but when I am ready to talk, you will be the first to hear.Nigeria are in the middle of preparations for this years World Cup in Brazil. They have been drawn against Argentina, Bosnia-Herzegovina and Iran in the group stage.Keshi led Nigeria to the Nations Cup title last year and has a huge following among the Super Eagles fans who have hopes that he can pull off another great surprise at the global showpiece.
