The ongoing Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, strike has delayed the arrival of the remaining players in the Super Eagles’ camp.
Eight (8) players were all expected to join their teammates in camp on Monday (today).
Defenders Semi Ajayi, Bright Osayi-Samuel and Calvin Bassey, midfielder Frank Onyeka, and forward Paul Onuachu are already in the country and have been unable to join the camp due to the Nigeria Labour Congress strike, which has halted domestic flights.
A total of 15 players trained on Monday morning at the practice pitch of the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo.
There was no training session on Monday evening, as the players are expected to resume intensive sessions on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, hopefully with a full house.
The trio of Alex Iwobi, Maduka Okoye, and Ademola Lookman are expected to arrive in the country on Tuesday, according to the NFF.
Meanwhile, the delegation of Bafana Bafana is expected to arrive in Nigeria on Wednesday, with the team already booked into Four Points By Sheraton Hotel in Ikot-Ekpene.
