This is however coming about 48 hours after they were allegedly harassed by a member of staff of the hotel they are staying ahead of the game.

When will Nigeria vs Liberia WCQ be played?

Meanwhile, Nigeria welcome Liberia to the Teslim Balogun Stadium on Friday, September 3 as they commence their quest to qualify for the global football showpiece staging in 2022.

Coach Gernot Rohr's men travel to the Aderito Sena Stadium four days later to battle Cape Verde for another three points in Group C on September 7.

Their doubleheader against the Central Africa Republic will be staged on October 6th and 10th and the last two group games will be staged in November.

Nigeria won just one of their three group games at the 2018 edition of the FIFA World Cup in Russia and they will hope their appearance in Qatar next year will be better.

Why drama ensued in Super Eagles camp?

Gernot Rohr has invited 30 players for the matches as Nigeria host Liberia on Friday, September 3 before travelling to Cape Verde for Match Day 2 scheduled for Tuesday, September 7.

Almost all players are already in camp as they continue to prepare for the must-win fixtures.
