The home-based Super Eagles began their 2016 African Nations Championship, with a 4-1 victory over Niger Republic.
Elvis Chisom Chikatara was the star of the show, netting a hat-trick as Sunday Oliseh’s men completely dominated the Mena.
The Abia Warriors player opened scoring in the 46th minute, before Moses Okoro made it 2-0 in the 74th minute. Adje Zakari Adebayor pulled one back for his side, but Chikatara scored two times to settle the game.
Nigeria will now take on Tunisia in their second group game on Friday.
