Ahead of the Nigeria vs Ghana clash, the Federal Government of Nigeria has directed that all offices within the Federal Capital Territory should close by 1 pm on Tuesday, March 29, to ensure Civil Servants and all Government Workers can have enough time to go to the Moshood Abiola National Stadium in Abuja and watch the game live.
The directive was contained in a circular from the office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, Mrs Folashade Yemi-Esan, signed by the Permanent Secretary, Service Welfare Office, Dr Ngozi Onwudiwe.
It directed all government offices to close by 1pm on the day, to ensure people can go to the Moshood Abiola National Stadium Abuja to support the Super Eagles in the Qatar 2022 World Cup PlayOff with the Black Stars of Ghana.

The first leg of the encounter ended goalless, meaning that the reverse fixture in Abuja has become a winner takes all.

The Super Eagles can also lose out in the event of a score draw.
This is why the Federal Government may have decided to give the team all the support it needs, just as the Ghanaian government did in the first leg at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi.
