President Bola Tinubu has congratulated the national team following their win over South Africa in the semi-final of ongoing 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
Tinubu has charged the Super Eagles to go all the way and win the trophy.
The president wrote this in a post via his X account after the match.
Tinubu wrote, “From the Southernmost cape of Africa to the Plains of Mauritania and the coast of West Africa…. You have made us all Proud to be Nigerians! Go… Soar in the AFCON Finals Well done, boys!”
Recall that the Super Eagles needed penalties to see off South Africa in their semi-final clash on Wednesday.
The game ended 1-1 in regulation time and after 120 minutes.
Nigeria will now face host Ivory Coast or DR Congo in Sunday’s final.
