Nigerian President Alhaji Mohammadu Buhari has sent a message of congratulations to the national team, the Super Eagles.
His message comes after the team beat their Guinea Bissau counterpart 2-0 in the ongoing AFCON in Cameroon.
The Super Eagles won all their three matches in the group stages by beating Egypt 1-0, Sudan 3-1 and Guinnea Bissau 2-0.
His post is below:
“Congratulations to our Super Eagles on winning all their three games and advancing to the second round of the AFCON in grand style.
I urge them to maintain and even surpass the terrific form that has made them leaders in the group stage, and to remain good ambassadors of Nigeria on and off the field.
The entire country looks forward with hope to a total of seven emphatic wins in this competition. Three down, four to go!
They are assured of my unflinching support as they soar like the Eagles that they are to write yet another brilliant chapter in the unfolding story of Nigerian football”.
