While expressing his apology to the nation for the outcome of the team’s performance, Mr. Ikhana noted that he accepted full responsibility for the results at the championship.

Mr. Ikhana's contract with the Nigerian Football Federation which was signed on April 1 2012 stipulates that it is compulsory for him to at least get Nigeria to the Semi-final stage of the competition, a feat he achieved.

According to him, the notice of resignation to the federation is in accordance with his contract.
