The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has invited sporting media organisations to apply for accreditation for the 2027 CAF U23 Cup of Nations qualifying match between Nigeria’s U23 Men National Team, the Olympic Eagles, and the U23 Men National Team of the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The second-round, second-leg fixture will be played at Remo Stars Stadium in Ikenne-Remo on Tuesday, 17th November 2026, with kick-off scheduled for 16:00hrs.
The match is part of the qualifying series for next year’s final tournament, which will be hosted by Egypt.
Because of the limited capacity of the venue’s Media Gallery, each media organisation will be permitted no more than one slot for a Press and Photo-Journalist.
Applications must be sent by email to [email protected]. The accreditation window will open at 14:00hrs on Sunday, 15th November 2026 and close at 14:00hrs on Monday, 16th November 2026.
The NFF said requests submitted after the Monday deadline will not be considered.
Accreditation cards will be available for collection at Remo Stars Stadium, Ikenne-Remo, on Monday, 16th November 2026.
The federation expressed its appreciation for the continued support, understanding and cooperation of the country’s sporting media.
