The players who hit the well-equipped gym at the Eko Hotel in Lagos include William Ekong, captain Ahmed Musa, Ola Aina, Henry Onyekuru, Oghenekaro Etebo and Shehu Abdullahi.
The team will begin training at the Teslim Balogun Stadium in Lagos tomorrow morning, when most of the call-ups would have hit camp.
Thus far only four players have pulled out of the qualifiers – Samuel Kalu is injured, while travel restrictions caused by the Coronavirus Pandemic have also stopped Kenneth Omeruo, Sadiq Umar (Spain) and Moses Simon (France).
The Eagles face hosts Benin in Porto-Novo on Saturday, before the welcome bottom team Lesotho to Lagos next Tuesday.
