Super Eagles camp opens in Abuja ahead of African Nations Championship

The Super Eagles have resumed camping in Abuja, ahead of the African Nations Championship (CHAN) qualifier against Cote d’Ivoire on July 6.

Chigozie Agbim, who is the skipper of the home-based national team, was the first to arrive on Sunday morning. The Enugu Rangers goalkeeper was joined by his club mate Chibuzor Okonkwo and Warri Wolves duo of Azubuike Egwueke and Oghenekaro Etebo.

Stephen Keshi has already replaced Tony Okpotu, who just signed for a Libyan club, with Haruna Babalo from El Kanemi Warriors.

The match will be played at the Ahmadu Bello Stadium in Kaduna and Nigeria will be hoping to qualify for their first ever CHAN tournament, after missing out on the two previous editions in 2009 and 2011.
