Coach of the Super Eagles of Nigeria, Sunday Oliseh has been given a seven-day by the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN) to name the journalists who allegedly demanded bribe from him.
Oliseh over the weekend released two videos where he ranted about critics and his former colleagues who have been critical of him.
He also alleged that some sports writers have been demanded bribes from him so they could write something nice about him.
"I will not pay anybody like some have asked me to, to write anything positive about him," Oliseh said in the video.

SWAN in a statement have however demanded that the former midfielder named the writers who have demanded bribes from him.
“The
Leadership of the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria in its quest to
ensure continuous sanity in the profession, and for the purpose of
change mantra which is gradually revolving round every aspect of the
economy, is requesting that the Head Coach names those journalists that
approached him within the next seven days," a statement by the body's national secretary Andrew Abba read.
“This
has become imperative considering the recent bashing the Sports Writers
have been receiving from the NFF and its employees. It would be called
that the NFF President only recently at the National Assembly took a
swipe on the Sports Writers for being the brain behind their inabilities
to secure sponsors for the Federation.
“Henceforth,
SWAN would no longer fold its arms and watch people blame their
misfortune on the association. We have, as major stakeholders, and would
no longer tolerate people dragging SWAN in their maladministration and
technical ineptitude.”
