“We cannot continue to talk about Eagles not going far in the tournament after showing so much promise at the group stage” he further emphasized.

The NCAC boss said there was the need for Nigerians to give maximum support to the National team so that they could qualify for the Qatar world cup which will serve as a good platform to once again market Nigeria’s rich and diverse culture, arts and crafts which would further attract global patronage.

This, according to him, will translate to massive Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) for the country even after the fiesta.
