Nigeria's coach Eric Chelle and his Super Eagles have touched down in Uyo and wasted no time kicking off preparations for their upcoming fixture on Tuesday.

Chelle, determined to maintain momentum, has made it clear he’s not resting on the laurels of the impressive and much-needed Rwanda win.
Consequently, according to reports emerging from the team’s camp in Uyo, Akwa Ibom state, the French tactician has imposed strict measures to shield his players from distractions.
No visitors or journalists will be allowed near the squad, a move designed to ensure maximum concentration ahead of the decisive matchup.
Training schedules reflect this disciplined approach. Sunday’s session is fully closed to the public and media, while Monday’s practice will open for just the mandatory 15 minutes, following the official pre-match press conference.
Fans and reporters eager for insights will have to wait until match day when provisions for mixed zone interactions with the players will be arranged.
With Nigeria’s World Cup hopes regaining traction, Chelle’s no-nonsense regime signals his intent to keep the Eagles soaring after a precarious start to the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying series left hopes hanging by the thread.
Tuesday’s fixture promises to test whether this renewed focus can translate into another crucial victory.
