The Nigeria Football Federation has appealed to fans coming to the Ahmadu Bello Stadium on Friday to watch the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match between the Super Eagles of Nigeria and Pharaohs of Egypt not to bring any weapon with them. The appeal was made by NFF General Secretary, Dr. Mohammed Sanusi recently in Abuja.
“We are specially appealing to our football fans not to come with any item that might be seen as a weapon, because security will be very tight on the day. We also appeal passionately to the fans to co-operate fully with the security agents to make for hitch –free entry into the venue.
“Similarly, we are appealing to the fans to come to the stadium wearing green and white colours. We want the venue proudly adorned in our national colours.”
The match will hold by 5pm, and another clash will take place in Alexandria on Tuesday, March 29.
Goodluck to the Eagles.
