In a bid to specially celebrate the National President of the Super Eagles Supporters Club (SESC), the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria, (IPMAN) and the national executives of SESC has demand a resounding victory from the Super Eagles in their World Cup qualifiers match against Lesotho.


Nigeria will take on Lesotho on Thursday, November 16 in their first game of the series at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo which coincides with the birthday of Prince Vincent Okumagba the founder of Super Eagles Supporters Club and top chieftain of IPMAN Lagos.


The two bodies in separate statements issued ahead of the birthday celebration of a scion of the Okumagba family in Delta State, the Secretary General of the SESC, Francis Aguh urged the Super Eagles to record a huge win in their World Cup qualifiers match against Lesotho as a birthday gift to the Prince Vincent Okumagba that had done so much in supporting the Nigerian national teams over the years.
