Homeboy Emem Eduok scores as Akwa Ibom Stadium gets commissioned

Dolphins striker Emem Eduok made history after scoring Nigeria's only goal against the meteors of Ghana to mark the Akwa Ibom Stadium commissioning ceremony on Friday evening.
The Akwa Ibom born striker headed home a Solomon Kwambe across to put the Home-based eagles ahead in the 35th minutes which gave Nigeria victory in the international friendly match.

The commissioning of the world-class edifice was however led by President Goodluck Jonathan, who was assisted by Ghana’s John Dramani Mahama and Ivory Coast’s Alassane Ouattara.

Modelled after Johannesburg’s Soccercity and Bayern Munich’s Alianz Arena, the 30,000 seater edifice has a bullet-proof State Box, which has 70 seats.
