“Let's try as much as possible to stay indoors and abide by the rules given by the government and also that of the Nigeria Football Federation.”
“I encourage all Nigerians on the need to adhere to all laid down protocols by the federal government to ensure we all stay safe,” Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen says.
“Please stay indoors. We can fight this together and we are going to win against COVID-19,” ex-Nigeria international Odion Ighalo says.
“I encourage everyone to follow these procedures in order to keep us all safe,” Super Eagles midfielder Wilfred Ndidi says.
“Please let's obey the health rules, washing your hands regularly, avoid crowded,” Super Eagles captain Musa says.
Alex Iwobi is not left out; “I hope everyone is staying safe and staying healthy but please stay at home,” the players.
“It's a difficult battle because we don't see this enemy but we can win it together if we have this good solidarity. We have it in our football family and we must have it all together in Nigeria,” Super Eagles coach Gernot Rohr says.
