The Honourable Minister of Sports Development, Senator John Owan Enoh has issued a rallying call to the Super Eagles of Nigeria as they prepare for a crucial clash against Ivory Coast in their second group game at the African Cup of Nations.

The Minister charged the team to make amends for Sunday’s 1-1 draw with Equatorial Guinea by securing a victory against their host.

“Thursday’s game gives us an opportunity to make a statement, by going ahead to feast on the Elephants in their backyard. I am urging the Super Eagles to remain resolute, as we will be playing against 11 players on the pitch, the home fans, and even the weather,” Enoh said. “We must be mentally superior for the entire duration of the game, as we need to secure a victory to boost our chances of advancing to the next round.”
