“Well, I want to assure you that come Sunday over an hundred of us will be leaving Nigeria via South Africa Airline.’’

“Coupled with the understanding among them, the zeal among them, I am sure that I have this level of confidence that they will get to the final of this game and even winning the tournament.”

He urged the team to be more focused, determined and play as a team to enhance their victory at the tournament comprising world continental champions.
