Others are Vincent Enyeama, Leon Balogun, Rabiu Ibrahim, Godfrey Oboabona, Ahmed Musa and Rabiu Ibrahim.
Six players from the Nigeria Professional Football League made the cut and they include, Femi Thomas, Ikechukwu Ezenwa, Paul Onobi, Prince Aggrey, Austin Oboroakpo and Chima Akas.
However, Solomon Kwambe, Gbolahan Salami, Haruna Lukman were excluded from the squad that would try the Indomitable Lions and Red Devils for size.
Nigeria will take on Cameroon in a friendly in Brussels, Belgium on October 11, and will also face Congo three days earlier.
