World Cup: Odemwingie, Yobo and Ameobi make Keshi's provisional list for the World Cup
Nigeria
Football Federation has announced a 30-man provisional list for the
2014 World Cup Brazil, the list was released on Tuesday following a
long meeting of the NFF along Super Eagles Head coah Stephen Keshi.
Stoke City striker Peter Odemwingie officially became a 'prodigal son' as he was enlisted in the squad. The 32-year-old striker was recalled
to the Super Eagles ending his almost 2 years feud with head coach
Stephen Keshi a.k.a “the big boss”
Odemwingie
last played for the Super Eagles in their game against Rwanda in
2012 and things went awry ever since between the striker and coach,
the pair fell out after Odemwingie was ommitted from Keshi's 2013
Africa Cup of Nations squad.
In a recent interview with BBC Sports,
the former West Brom striker said: “ I made mistakes in the past
but I am in a better place right now. I thank the manager for this
chance. This is good for my career because I am in a better place
right now. I just want to make my own contribution to the team and my
country.”
Nigeria's
captain Joseph Yobo was also recalled to the team, the 33-year- old
player has not been part of the team since their Nations Cup victory
in South Africa last year.
Newcastle's
forward Shola Ameobi has also made the team.

Mikel Obi and Liverpool's Victor Moses are both lading the 19
returning players from the Nations Cup for the all important summer
