Nigeria’s Super Eagles have said they were yet to be informed over an indefinite postponement of their 2012 Nations Cup qualifier against Guinea on Sunday.
The Confederation of African Football (CAF) have postponed Nigeria’s 2012 Nations Cup qualifier in Conakry on Sunday till further notice.

JUBILATION.....Nigeria's defender Daniel Shittu (L), Osaze Odemwingie and Joseph Yobo celebrate a goal during a past match.
“The match has been postponed till further notice,” announced CAF director of communications, Sulaiman Habuba, who would not elaborate.
Guinea coach, Michel Dussuyer, also confirmed he received a fax at his Abidjan hotel room that the tie had been put off until further notice. He said no reason was given for this postponement.
Eagles assistant coach, Ben Iroha, disclosed the team had not been communicated on any shift of the clash in Conakry.
“This is news to me. I didn’t know. Nobody has told us about this any way. Maybe we will be communicated any way. Sunday is the date we have been working with to play in Guinea,” Iroha said.
Guinea, who have called up 19 foreign pros for Sunday’s showdown, have been training in Abidjan.
The Eagles have been training in Abuja with a dozen Europe_based stars joining up for Wednesday evening workout.
There have been serious doubts about the game, first as a result of the general elections in Guinea and by Monday, due to the FIFA suspension of Nigeria.
Iroha expressed concerns over when the match will now be played if not on Sunday.
“The problem is that playing the game at a later date may constitute a big problem because I don’t really know how it is going to work out. I foresee a difficulty in rescheduling this match.
It is going to be pretty difficult to secure the release of players from their various clubs for a rescheduled match if that is what will happen,” said the former Nigeria international defender.
It was however gathered that the top Group B match may likely be played in the next FIFA friendly window on November 17.
