Keshi said on Supersport Monday Night Football programme that his dismissal letter was already prepared after his team thumped Liberia 6-1 and qualified for the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations.
“I know for sure the letter was there, the letter was waiting before Nations Cup after we won 6-1 against Liberia in Calabar,” he said on the live television programme.
“It wasn’t from my president, not from the board of the federation, but from one or two other people.
“We were not told directly but the speculations were all over the place for some time.
“I kept hearing the same thing at the Nations Cup.
“But we said we are not bothered by this. Let them give us the sack letter and we leave. But for now there is no sack letter, let’s move on. Our job is hire today, fire tomorrow.”
Speculations were rife that he could well have been replaced by Zambia coach Herve Renard, who was first contacted for the Nigeria top post after the 2010 AFCON in Angola.
Keshi maintained he enjoys a good working relationship with the NFF led by Aminu Maigari.
“For now, I have a wonderful relationship with my president, apart from one or two individuals (at the NFF),” he said.
“If I’m tired of staying here, if I don’t enjoy what I’m doing, I walk.
“It’s not the end of the world, coaching Nigeria is not the end of the world. But you have to give me the respect, the freedom to do my job.”
