Arsenal winger Alex Iwobi, Chelsea loanee Ola Aina and Brighton & Hove's Leon Balogun were spotted undergoing airport formalities at the Akwa Ibom Airport after flying in from Abuja.
The other players on the plane from the nation's capital include Ikechukwu Ezenwa, Samuel Kalu, Chidozie Awaziem and Ahmed Musa.
Officials have informed this website that the recent political activities in the South South geopolitical zone is behind the Super Eagles travel woes as most of the political parties booked in advance almost all the flights from Lagos and Abuja.
Iwobi and his childhood pal, Aina had to withdraw from the Super Eagles team that thrashed Seychelles last month on account of injuries and the latter is in line to make his full competitive debut for the national team this weekend after a string of fine performances for Torino in recent matches.
English-based trio Kelechi Iheanacho, Wilfred Ndidi and Oghenekaro Etebo will join the team later today, all things being equal.
