Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi has picked six locally-based players in his 23-man squad for the African Cup of Nations.

"They have been given a task to do and I'm strongly convinced they will not disappoint me."
Early last week, former Nigeria winger Waidi Akanni revealed that he was worried about his country as they had delayed the announcement of their 23-man squad for the tournament.
