The Super Eagles will begin camping for the crucial
qualification match on Sunday March 10 in Abuja
Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi has released a list of 24
players picked from the Nigeria Premier League that will form part of the squad
to take on Kenya in a 2014 Fifa World Cup Brazil qualification game on March 23
in Calabar.
Africa Cup of Nations stars Sunday Mba and Godfrey
Oboabona are among the players that will contest for a place in Keshi’s first
game since the triumph in South Africa.
The players are expected to arrive camp in Abuja on
Sunday March 10. They will stay at the Bolton White Apartments, their regular
camping site.
Keshi also called up the three other players from the NPL
that did not make any appearance at the Afcon. Goalkeeper Chigozie Agbim,
defender Azubuike Egwueke and midfielder Reuben Gabriel return to the squad
despite not tasting action in South Africa.
The list of Europe-based players that will join the squad
will be announced on Thursday, March 7.
