The two-time runners-up arrived in Costa Rica on Saturday night ahead of the competition kick-off slated for August 10th.

Danjuma said playing against different opponents during the qualifiers will propel them into doing great things in the tournament.

"We took a long route to get here, having to play four different teams in the qualifying series. I can tell you that we are prepared to do Nigeria and Africa proud. It is not about being here to make up the number; it is about being here to make an impact," he said.

Nigeria will play against one of the tournament favourites France in the opening group game on Thursday, August 12th.
