Bayelsa United head coach, Ladan Bosso has charged Super Eagles' manager, Stephen Keshi to see Sunday Mba's winner against the Elephants of Cote d'Ivoire as a wake-up call to give other domestic lads on the bench opportunity to showcase their talents.
.
Mba's goal ensured Nigeria progressed with a 2-1 win over Ivory Coast into the semifinals of the Africa Cup of Nations at the Royal Bafokeng Sports Stadium in Rustenburg on Sunday.
.
Stricker Emmanuel Emenike scored in the 43rd minute to give Nigeria the lead against bitter rivals, Ivory Coast.
.
Bosso, who restated his unflinching confidence in the local lads to deliver the goods, said the likes of Kano Pillars' midfielder, Gabriel Reuben and Enugu Rangers' stricker, Ejike Uzoenyi should be given starting rolls to prove themeselves.
