Maduka Okoye

Maduka Okoye will replace grieving first-choice goalkeeper Stanley Nwabali from the Super Eagles’ squad that will confront the Amavubi of Rwanda in Monday’s final 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying match in Uyo. Ethiopia-based goalkeeper Amas Obasogie has also been invited for the match.   

Head Coach Augustine Eguavoen excused Nwabali from the match after the demise of his father.

“He has been excused from the game. However, the player will come to watch the match and cheer his team mates on,” Team Administrator, Dayo Enebi Achor, told thenff.com.

The player announced via his social media handle on Friday that his father, Godspower Onyekam Abali, Chief Onyeogazrim 1 of Okwuzi, had passed on. The former chief surveyor was 67.
