Nigeria’s Senate President David Mark, has challenged the national team to go and “conquer” the world, so they can be accorded respect in Africa and around the world.
Mark made this known in a goodwill message to the players and officials of the Super Eagles, before they left the country for London, where they will face Scotland in a friendly on Wednesday.
He reminded them that the whole nation was solidly behind them and urged the African champions to bring glory to the continent.
“With team spirit and total commitment, there is no team in the world you cannot conquer. I am hopeful that you will do us proud in Brazil,” Mark said.
“As reigning African champions, the responsibility is on us to prove a point that Africans have come of age in the global football tournament.
“I am optimistic that you will be ready to defend your fatherland and indeed the continent.”
