The Super Eagles of Nigeria of are through to the 2025 AFCON before their penultimate game of the qualifiers against Benin Republic in Cote d’Ivoire, OwnGoalNigeria.com reports.

AdvertisementLibya’s result achieved by a goal from Fahd T Saad Mohamed with six minutes left to play has rendered Nigeria’s last two games in the group to a dead rubber tie, but they will still be keen to finish as group winners.

The exports are mainly fruit juices, soft drinks and fizzy drinks in glass bottles.

Swani explained that glass bottled drinks have a longer shelf life of just over a year whereas plastic bottled drinks have a shelf-life of only six months.
