The Nigeria Super Eagles plan to charter a plane for next month’s AFCON qualifier in Tanzania and will fly out to Dar es Salaam from Abuja on the eve of match day and depart immediately after the game, officials have disclosed.

The Super Eagles will thus fly out on Friday, September 4, and head to Port Harcourt after the match on Saturday.

The team are scheduled to take on next-door neigbours Niger in Port Harcourt in a friendly on September 8.

Nigeria are drawn in the same qualifying group with Egypt and Chad.
