Orlando Pirates’ defender Olisa Ndah is back on the international stage with Nigeria.
After the departure of coach Finidi George, Nigeria has brought in German coach Bruno Labbadia.
With two crucial AFCON qualifier matches against Benin and Rwanda scheduled for September, Ndah, a 26-year-old central defender, earned a call-up.
Though Ndah didn’t start in the matches, he did make a second-half appearance as a substitute during Nigeria’s 3-0 victory over Benin.
