Super Eagles midfielder, Ogenyi Onazi, has pledged his support for FC IfeanyiUbah ahead of their Federation Cup final clash with Nasarawa United on Sunday.
The Anambra Warriors, who finished fourth in the just concluded Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) season, are aiming for their first elite domestic title which automatically qualifies them for a continental ticket.
IfeanyiUbah must overcome the Solid Miners in this season’s edition of the oldest club competition to be played at the Teslim Balogun Stadium, Lagos.
Onazi, 23, who will be in action for his Turkish side, Trabzonspor, against Besiktas on Saturday, has vowed to avail himself a day after at the stadium for the encounter.
