The Super Eagles' camp has received a boost as five players who were initially stranded due to the nationwide strike have arrived in Uyo.
Defenders Semi Ajayi, Bright Osayi-Samuel, Calvin Bassey, midfielder Frank Onyeka, and forward Paul Onuachu landed at the Victor Attah International Airport in Uyo and joined their teammates at the Ibom Hotel and Resorts ahead of the upcoming qualifying match against the Bafana Bafana.
With the arrival of these players, the team now has a total of 20 players in camp, just three days before the crucial match.
Nigeria is set to face South Africa in a rematch of this year's Africa Cup of Nations first semi-final, and a win is crucial for the Super Eagles to strengthen their position in Group C as they aim to qualify for the FIFA World Cup.
