"I won't be part of the game against Enyimba," the former home-based Super Eagles defender told Completesportsnigeria.com.
"I was hoping to be fit enough to play the game but the doctors have decided against that.
"As a player you always want to play in big games like this but it's disappointing that I won't have that chance."
