President Bola Tinubu, through the Minister of Sports, John Enoh, has expressed his desire for the Super Eagles to enhance their performance and deliver a stronger showing in the latter stages of the Africa Cup of Nations in Cote d’Ivoire. The message was conveyed to the players via Zoom from Abuja on Wednesday evening in Abidjan.
According to Enoh, the President was not too impressed with the showing of the team during the group stage. However, he is optimistic that the team will perform better now that they are off the group stages.
In response, team captain Ahmed Musa expressed gratitude to the sports minister while also extending an invitation to the President, urging him to attend their live matches as it would greatly inspire the players.
The Super Eagles will play the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon in the last 16 of the tournament on Saturday at the Felix Houphouet -Boigny Stadium in Abidjan.
