President Muhammadu Buhari has congratulated the Super Eagles on their victory Friday over the national team of Iceland in their second match at the Russia 2018 FIFA World Cup.
According to a statement by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, the President “expressed particular delight at the confidence, discipline, team-work and indomitable spirit displayed by the young Nigerian players.”
President Buhari urged the Nigerian team not to limit themselves but sustain the current winning momentum by going all out against their last group opponent, Argentina, next week.
“I am confident that if our players believe in themselves, they can qualify out of their difficult group and even go very far in the tournament,” adding that “with determination, nothing is impossible,” the President stated while urging all Nigerians to continue to rally round the Nigerian ambassadors with their prayers and other forms of support.
