Shaibu Amodu is to replace Stephen Keshi as Nigeria coach, the country's football federation has revealed.

The decision comes only hours after Keshi, who
had been without a contract, led Nigeria to a
3-1 win to revive their campaign to reach
Morocco.
After an emergency meeting, the Nigeria Football
Federation unanimously opted to appoint Amodu
for the next two qualifiers in November.
A permanent, foreign coach is expected to be
installed after that.
Amodu will face two must-win games - away to
Congo and at home to South Africa - as the
African champions continue to be at risk of
failing to qualify to defend their title.
Their victory over Sudan was their first in Group
A and moves them off the foot of the table but
they are three points behind Congo, who occupy
the second automatic qualification spot.
"The executive committee took a unanimous
decision to let Keshi go and Shaibu Amodu to
take charge for the next two matches," NFF
spokesman Ademola Olajire told BBC Sport.
Nigeria fans protested
against Keshi during
Wednesday's match - and
they got their wish
"In recognition of their contributions to the
Nigeria game, the executive committee also
approved that the trio of Keshi, Daniel Amokachi
and Ike Shorounmu should proceed to any
coaching course of their choice in any country of
their choice to build their capacity, at the
expense of the NFF.
"All their entitlements will be paid within the
next fortnight."
During his time in charge Keshi lead the Super
Eagles to their first Africa Cup of Nations title
since 1994 when they won the trophy in South
Africa last year.
He became only the second man to lift the
trophy as a player and as a coach after Egyptian
Mahmoud El Gohary.
His success continued in Brazil when Nigeria
made into the second round of the World Cup,
before losing 2-0 to France.
The 56-year-old Amodu, who has previously
managed the national team on four different
occasions, will be assisted by Gbenga Ogunbote
and Salisu Yusuf.
Amodu previously led Nigeria to a third-place
finish in the 2002 Nations Cup and also held the
job between 1994 and 1997.
He previously helped the country to qualify for
the 2002 World Cup in Japan and South Korea.
Under his stewardship, Nigeria qualified for the
2010 World Cup in South Africa but Amodu was
sacked despite the team's third-place finish at
the 2010 Africa Cup of Nations in Angola.
It was the second time he had been removed
from his post ahead of a World Cup finals
tournament - Amodu was also fired ahead of the
2002 edition after Nigeria finished third at the
2002 Nations Cup in Mali.
Meanwhile, Samson Siasia, who was fired as
Super Eagles coach in October 2011, has
returned as the national under-23 coach.
