In a meeting with the Honorable Minister for Sports, Sunday Dare in Abuja on Wednesday, Mr Bawa assured that the Super Eagles will not have any issues getting into the country for the first leg.

He revealed that the Super Eagles will be given a special landing permit to avoid any issues around immigration and the team will be given maximum cooperation to ensure a hospitable stay throughout their time in Ghana.

He also revealed that in a gesture of good faith, the Ghanaian FA has decided to hand over five per cent of the total tickets as complimentary tickets to travelling Nigerian fans.
