The Flamingos are in Group B of the two-week tournament, alongside the U-17 teams of Niger Republic and Côte d’Ivoire. Host nation Ghana is placed in Group A with Benin Republic, following the withdrawal of Burkina Faso. Togo had also withdrawn earlier from the competition.  


Nigeria’s U-17 girls reached the quarterfinals of the recent FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup in the Dominican Republic, scoring nine goals in the group stage before being eliminated by the United States of America in the Round of 8.
