Technical Adviser of the Super Eagles, Gernot Rohr, has rejected a three-bedroom apartment that was offered to him in Jabi, Abuja, by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF).
Rohr said it was too big for him and insisted on a smaller apartment.
As part of the terms of the two-year deal Rohr signed with the NFF, he is entitled to an official accommodation and car.

The NFF had in early August appointed Rohr as the new handler of the Nigeria’s senior men national team.
Rohr signed a two-year contract that will reportedly pay him $47,000 a month to lead Nigeria through the 2018 World Cup qualifiers .
Former FIFA and CAF executive member, Amos Adamu, had last month criticised the NFF for appointing Gernot Rohr as Super Eagles coach.
Adamu, a member of the organizing committee for the 2010 South Africa World Cup and an Executive Committee member of CAF and FIFA before he was banned, said Franco-German coach does not have the pedigree to handle the Super Eagles and will lead the team to failure.
“He does not have the pedigree, I don’t know him. For now, we do not have a coach. He will just damage us and then he will leave.”
Adamu also questioned how the coach was recruited by the NFF and said he doesn’t expect NFF president Amaju Pinnick to resign despite the clamour for him to do so.
