“We want to come out and play here in Kaduna on Friday and do what we like to do best that is play well and beat Egypt and pocket the three points. We want to move from Kaduna to Egypt and beat the Egyptians on their ground and pocket the three points at stake there then we will conclude the job to pick the 2017 AFCON ticket in Gabon.

“As you can see everything is bubbling here in camp and we are already celebrating our victory ahead of the Friday match. We are very confident of victory against Egypt. The atmosphere in camp since we arrived Abuja and now in Kaduna has been electrifying and everything is fine here in Kaduna. Our camp is bubbling with excitement”, the right back disclosed.

The bulky defender also re-assured football fans that the hot weather in Kaduna won’t affect the performance of the team when they file out against arch-rival, Pharaoh of Egypt in Kaduna on Friday.

“Sincerely speaking after training in Kaduna I can tell you that it is the same weather condition here compared with Abuja. So I can tell you that there is nothing to fear about the weather. Our major concern now is to file out against the Egyptians on Friday and beat them to win our three points after which we will now battle it out in Alexandria for the return leg”, Okonkwo told Sportinglife in Kaduna yesterday.
