Chairman of the Nigeria Football Federation, Technical and Development Committee, Barrister Chris Green has assured that all arrangements and preparation for next month’s crucial 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifying matches against Cameroon will be accorded high level of seriousness.
“Everyone involved in one arrangement or the other with regards to the matches, including the technical crew are working in tandem.
“We are approaching these matches with the seriousness it deserves,” Green told nff.com
“The Cameroonians are the reigning champions of Africa; we respect them for that but that is where it ends.
“We have no reason to fear them. A few years ago, we were also the champions of Africa.
“We are in one accord with the players and the technical bench to achieve victory in both matches.”
Nigeria host Cameroon on 1 September 1 at the Akwa Ibom International Stadium in the first leg qualifier.
Three days later, the sides face-off in the second leg at the Stade Omnisports Ahmadou-Ahidjo in Yaounde.
