Nigerian Afrobeats star Wizkid has voiced his excitement over the Super Eagles’ preparations ahead of their crucial 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Rwanda in Kigali.
Under the guidance of newly appointed head coach Eric Chelle, the team held its first training session on Tuesday afternoon — and the vibe clearly impressed Wizkid.
“New Super Eagles team! Love the energy,” the Grammy-winning artist posted on X (formerly Twitter) on Wednesday.
The Super Eagles will face Rwanda at the Amahoro Stadium on Friday, March 21, with kickoff set for 5 PM Nigerian time. After the match, Nigeria will head back home to face Zimbabwe in Uyo on Tuesday.
With qualification for the 2026 World Cup on the line, securing maximum points from both fixtures is essential for the Super Eagles’ campaign hopes.
