The POAK defender picked up a knock during Nigeria’s opening game at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations against Equatorial Guinea which ended 1-1. He is expected to undergo surgery on Tuesday, February 27, 2024, which will most likely rule him out of this season which is a big blow for POAK.

The 30-year-old missed the Eagle’s final group game against Guinea Bissau but he played through the injury in the second round, quarter-final, semi-final and final against Cameroon, Angola, South Africa and Cote d’Ivoire respectively.
