All 24 players invited to the Nigeria national squad have arrived in Uyo to prepare for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying double‑header against Tanzania. The Super Eagles’ camp, based at the Four Points by Sheraton Hotel in Ikot Ikpene, welcomed 10 early arrivals on Tuesday, with the remaining 14 players following shortly thereafter.

The squad held its first official training session on Tuesday at the practice pitch of the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium. A second session is scheduled for Wednesday night, with only the opening 15 minutes open to the media and club members.

Coaches are using the sessions to fine‑tune tactics ahead of the Friday match against the Taifa Stars, which will be played at the same stadium in Uyo.

With the full squad in place, Nigeria is ready to contest the qualifying fixtures as part of the 2027 AFCON campaign.
