The Minister of Sports Development, Sen. John Owan Enoh, has reiterated the support of the Federal Government for the Super Eagles in their quest to win a fourth Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON, title in Cote D\u2019Ivoire in January 2024.<\/p>\n
The minister said this while addressing reporters at the Ilorin International Airport on Saturday.<\/p>\n
The re-assurance is coming on the heels of the release of a 25-man list by Super Eagles coach, Jose Peseiro, on Friday to prosecute the much anticipated tournament.<\/p>\n
Enoh noted that the presidency was desirous of a triumphant outing for the team and would give all the necessary support in this regard.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are hoping that we are going to make the best out of it. We have the full backing of the president,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The minister underscored the pride and honour it would bring to the nation if the Super Eagles could nick a fourth AFCON title, a decade after their last triumph in South Africa.<\/p>\n
He said the ministry was working round the clock with the Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, to ensure meticulous planning and execution for a triumphant tournament.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith a resounding desire for success and the unwavering support of the Presidency, the Super Eagles of Nigeria are gearing up to showcase their prowess and determination on the continental stage.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Ministry of Sports Development, in close coordination with the NFF, is dedicated to facilitating an environment conducive to the team\u2019s success,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n
