According to AfricanFootball.com, the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) rejected the proposal of Super Eagles coach Sunday Oliseh for team to camp in Tanzania.

The NFF according to report did not agree with Oliseh's location because  Tanzania has no standard artificial pitch, which is what will be used in the tournament in Rwanda.

The NFF Media Director Ademola Olajire sent out a statement confirming that the Super Eagles will be camped in Pretoria later ahead of the tournament.

Oliseh and his men will travel to Pretoria later in the month to kick off preparation for the 2016 CHAN which kicks off January 2016 in Kigali.
