The resident gave this advice while commending the team for an impressive start at the ongoing 33rd Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Cameroon.

While urging the Augustine Eguavoen-led team and the coaching staff to keep their eyes on the ball, the president also advised them to remain good ambassadors of Nigeria on and off the field, and give loyal fans and all Nigerians more exciting moments to celebrate.
President Buhari assured the Super Eagles of his unflinching support as they soar to write another chapter in the annals of Nigeria’s rich football history.
