Dr Rufai Oladipo, who is the president of Nigerian football supporters club,(NFSC) has suggested the the former late super eagles coach needs to be honored and remembered for his feat.

Speaking with the news agency of Nigeria (NAN), he said: "Naming a stadium after Keshi would serve as a befitting honor for the player who won the nations cup for Nigeria as a captain and as a coach. He achieved the same feat as Clement Westerhof, who won nations cup for the first time for Nigeria as the super eagles coach in 1994 in Tunisia."
