Chukwu told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Monday in Abuja that Rangers would repeat their away victory over Bantu in Lesotho in Enugu on Jan. 20.
He urged his players not to relent in their determination to scale through to the Group stages.
“It is not over until it is over, we must not relax because of our away victory.
“We shall continue to work hard and prepare well from the second leg because our opponents may like to spring up surprises in our home,’’ Chukwu said.
