Nigeria’s Minister of Sports Development, Senator John Enoh has charged the Supers Eagles to win the Africa Cup of Nations title in Ivory Coast next year after the team wrapped up their qualifying campaign with a comprehensive 6-0 victory over Sao Tome and Principe in Uyo on Sunday.
Striker Victor Osimhen scored a hat-trick just as Ademola Lookman, Taiwo Awoniyi and Samuel Chukwueze were on target to complete the double over the True Parrots who lost the first leg 10-0 last year.
Speaking on the encounter’s outcome, Enoh congratulated the team for rewarding the support of Nigerians with a good performance, while charging the team to bring home the AFCON next year.
The Super Eagles qualified with a game to spare following their 3-2 win over Sierra Leone in June and finished the qualifying campaign with 15 points from six games to secure top spot in Group A.
