In a post shared on his Instagram Stories, Daniel described the two coaches as the finest to emerge from Nigeria.
His post follows shortly after Finidi George resigned as coach of the Super Eagles.
Stephen Keshi served as the Super Eagles coach in 2013, leading the team to their third African Cup of Nations (AFCON) championship in South Africa. He passed away in June 2016.

Amodu Shuaibu has coached the Super Eagles more frequently than any other coach, having managed the national team on five separate occasions.
His initial appointment as the Super Eagles coach was in 2001, during which he successfully guided the team to qualify for the 2002 World Cup. Unfortunately, he was dismissed from the position just months into the tournament. He passed away three days after Keshi’s death.
