SUPER Eagles boss, Stephen Okechukwu Keshi, who is expected to fly out to Durban, South Africa, today to attend the draws of the 2013 African Nations Cup, which holds tomorrow, says he is not afraid of any team in the competition.

Keshi and NFF Technical Committee Chairman, Barrister Christopher Green, will join other NFF officials already in South Africa for the draws.

?I have told a lot of people and will say it again that I am not afraid of any team in the championship draws. You don?t win a championship by being afraid of your opponents and that is the spirit with which I am going to the draws,? he was quoted as saying.

The former NNB of Benin skipper says he has absolute respect for all the 16 teams that will take part in the championship, but fears none.

?Let them bring on any team and we will give our all, we have a team that the world too should be afraid of,? he declared.

On his part, Green said he was sure that Nigeria will get a favourable draw tomorrow, adding, ?we have a strong team but we also know that we want a good draw so that as we cruise in the championship we can stabilize and get our bearing right.?

Meanwhile, organizers of the draws have revealed the programme of events for all officials coming for the event.

Super Eagles secretary, Enebi Achor, who is one of the officials already in Durban, revealed that he would be attending a seminar for teams? officials today, followed by the draws tomorrow, while officials will tour the venues on Thursday. Friday will mark the departure of teams? officials from South Africa,? he revealed.
