Eagles Reject Match Bonus.

The Super Eagles are rejecting the
$2,500 match bonus for the 1-1 draw
they played with the Brave Warriors of
Namibia on Wednesday, insiting that the
new bonus regime is inappropriate and
unacceptable.
Each player was initially getting $5,000
for a draw and $10,000 for a win before
the restructuring in the remuneration
package due to the poor financial status
of the Nigeria Football Federation.
The players had rejected the $5,000 win
bonus for beating Kenya in Nairobi last
week.
The team were scheduled to leave for
Brazil for the FIFA Confederations Cup
on Thursday monrning via South Africa
but the players refused to leave their
Namibia hotel for the airport. They even
refused to come down from their rooms
for breakfast.
As at 10am, a team source feared they
were likely to miss their flight to
Johannesburg.
