Nigeria kicked off their campaign on a brutal style annihilating Liberia by 61 to 19 goals and defeated Togo by 47 to 20 goals in the U20 (Junior) category. Nigeria will face Cote d’Ivoire by 8pm on Friday.

Nnamani said Nigeria is blessed with players who can play anywhere in the world adding that the Ardova League has created an enabling environment for players to strive.

He said, “I have been to the IHF Continental and Intercontinental Trophy; I can tell you that the world already knows Nigeria. A lot of handball players have improved drastically due to them attending the Trophy while others got clubs within and outside Africa.

“Before we left Nigeria, I educated them on the numerous advantages of the IHF Trophy Africa Zone 3 and reasons why we need to scale through for the continental phase. Once we get to the Continental level, I am sure the young players will give their best for the country.

“The stability in the handball league has given the Federation and coaches the opportunities to have a large number of players to select. I want to thank those involved in ensuring the league brings out the best in players and coaches,” he added.
