Enyimba International goalkeeper, Theophilus Afelokhai who shone like a million star in the 2018 CAF Confederation Cup has been rewarded with an invitation to the Super Eagles after regular first choice Francis Uzoho got injured over the weekend playing for his club in the league.
The former Kano Pillars captain will now fight for a starting against club teammate Ikechukwu Ezenwa and Daniel Akpeyi who plays for Chippa United in the South Africa league.
It could be recalled that the last time Theophilus Afelokhai was invited last to the Super Eagles was under the tutelage of late Stephen Okechukwu Keshi and it was for the 2015 friendly match against Uganda in Uyo.
