AFCON Qualifier: We’re ready – Ndidi speaks ahead of Benin clash

Wilfred Ndidi has vowed that the Super Eagles will be seeking revenge when they face the Cheetahs of Benin Republic early next month.

The Super Eagles will host their neighbors in a 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo on Saturday, September 7.

The Cheetahs defeated Nigeria 2-1 in a 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier in May, but Ndidi is confident that the outcome will be different this time.

“We know we haven’t done as well as we wanted in the World Cup qualifiers but we’re ready to make things right in Uyo,” Ndidi said in a short video posted on the Super Eagles X account.

“They [Benin] had their win in Abidjan but we’ll see what happens in Uyo. Don’t worry; we’re prepared.”
