Head Coach Isah Ladan Bosso has invited a total of 30 players to the Flying Eagles’ camp, from which a final list will be drawn to fly Nigeria’s flag at the 13th African Games scheduled for the Ghanaian capital, Accra next month, BSNSports.com.ng reports. 

The Flying Eagles' will be aiming to go one step better after winning the silver medals at the last edition of the Games in Rabat, Morocco in 2019.

Nigeria will play Uganda, South Sudan, Senegal and Tunisia in that order in the group stage of the 13th African Games (formerly All-Africa Games).
