He charged the team to go all out against the opponent in their next match and ensure they do everything to secure victory for Nigeria.

The team on Friday defeated Liberia in Surulere, Lagos, while Cape Verde ended 1-1 with Central African Republic.

Earlier in the week, Air Peace signed a contract to be the official partners of the national team.

Announcing the N20m, Onyema said, “You won your first match resoundingly, and we expect that the one happening in Cape Verde in 24hours time will not be different.

“You’re carrying on your young shoulders the aspirations and the hopes of a Nation. You must help us in restoring hope to this country. Nigeria is a great country with so much potential to achieve. We are yet to get there. We may have our differences but we love ourselves.

“Because of this, if you win this match, I am going to give the team 20 million naira on arrival. I’ll bring the cash and hand it over.

“This will serve as a stepping stone in unifying our Nation. Go there and die for the country.”
