By Olamide Oyetunji - Preparation has commenced fully in the Super Eagles camp as core players of the team made their grande entrance into the camp in Benin City for the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Sierra Leone.
Edo state Deputy Governor Philip Shaibu was involved in training alongside several top European based players invited by Gernot Rohr.
It is not the first time the number two citizen of Edo state will be playing football as he has been a registered player of Bendel Insurance of Benin in the Nigeria National League.
