The Labour Party’s 2023 Presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has encouraged the Super Eagles to intensify their efforts in today’s Africa Cup of Nations knockout match against Cameroon.
Expressing congratulations for reaching the round of 16, the former Anambra governor emphasized the players as national ambassadors carrying the hopes of the nation.
Despite challenges, Obi remains confident in Nigeria’s winning spirit and pledges support to the Super Eagles.
He expressed optimism for Nigeria’s promise and urged the team to make the country proud in the face of tough competition, especially against Cameroon, a historic rival with whom Nigeria has a dominant recent record.
The winner of this West African clash will advance to the quarterfinals, facing the winner of Angola vs Namibia, both teams vying to add to their AFCON trophy tallies. Nigeria seeks a 4th title, while Cameroon aims for a 6th.
