Bolivia/South Africa Friendlies: Enyeama set for 100th cap as Ideye returns

Nigeria skipper Vincent Enyeama is set for a century of caps for the Super Eagles after being named in the 28 man squad for the friendlies against Bolivia and South Africa. The Lille shot-stopper will receive a special recognition by the NFF for this outstanding feat.

Nigeria caretaker coach Daniel Amokachi also recalled West Bromwich Albion striker Brown Ideye for the double cracker.

Ideye was overlooked for last year's FIFA World Cup™ but has rediscovered his form in the English Premier League. The Super Eagles host Bolivia on 26 March in Uyo, southern Nigeria, and three days later travel to South Africa.

Hapoel Beer Sheva of Israel star John Ogu, Volyn attacker Michael Babatunde, Bundesliga hot-shot Anthony Ujah, Hope Akpan of Reading as well as Leon Balogun all join the West Bromwich man to make a return to the international fold.

Fresh call ups include Aalesund defender Akeem Latifu, Watford forward Odion Ighalo and Moses Simon from Belgian club Gent with Stoke City's Victor Moses placed on standby.
