The Minister of Sports, Sunday Dare, has confirmed that the Super Eagles will camp in Abuja ahead of the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations.
Early speculations claimed the three-time African champions will set up camp in Uyo, the Akwa Ibom state capital.
However, Dare said on TVC: “The camp of the Super Eagles ahead of AFCON will be in Abuja.”
The camp is expected to open Tuesday next week.
Nigeria will open their AFCON campaign on January 11 against Egypt.
Dare’s announcement comes just after the Moshood Abiola National Stadium in Abuja was handed back to the Sports Ministry by the contractors after a major renovation.
