Nigeria have named an unchanged 23-man squad for the crucial 2018 World Cup qualifier against Zambia next month.
The Super Eagles face 2012 Africa Cup of Nations winners Zambia at home in the south-eastern city of Uyo on 7 October.
If Nigeria can win the tie they will seal a sixth World Cup appearance.
Arsenal forward Alex Iwobi is named again after he was forced to withdraw from September's two games against Cameroon due to injury.
Leicester trio of Ahmed Musa, Wilfred Ndidi and Kelechi Iheanacho are also included, while former England youth international Ola Aina could make his long awaited debut.
Experienced China-based duo of captain John Mikel Obi and Odion Ighalo, as well as Chelsea wing-back Victor Moses complete a strong squad.
"I'm happy to be called up again because it's always a great honour to play for my country," Ighalo told BBC Sport.
"We know Zambia is a strong team and they will come with full determination in Uyo, we cannot not engage in irrelevant pre-match talking but deliver on the pitch.
"I've never played at the World Cup and like my other colleagues we all want to be in Russia, this is like a final for us."
The Super Eagles are top of Group B with ten points, while Chipolopolo lie second with seven points following a 1-1 draw with Cameroon and home and away triumphs over Algeria.
Three-time African champions Nigeria first appeared at the World Cup in 1994, where they reached the second round. They also played at the 1998, 2002, 2010 and 2014 tournaments.
