Ladan Bosso’s side however recovered from the setback, defeating hosts Egypt and Mozambique in their next two games.
Mayanja reckoned that he is aware of the threat posed by the seven-time champions.
“Nigeria is a good team. It’s going to be a very hard game but I think as I said, the achievement we need is tomorrow, that’s what we want to achieve.
“I don’t want to talk about Nigeria. The game is to be played on the pitch tomorrow.”
