Jose Peseiro who is the Super Eagles head coach has completely banned the use of earrings and rings to training in the camp.
Peseiro, on Sunday night, took charge of his first training session on Nigerian soil since his appointment.
The Portuguese also met some of his key stars for the first time on Sunday with some of the players unable to travel to the United States of America for the friendlies against Mexico and Ecuador.

The former Venezuela and Saudi Arabia gaffer has shown he is a no-nonsense man by setting the rules and standards for his players.
“He has told the players that he does not want to see anyone wearing finger rings to training and no earrings at all,” a top team official told totorinews.
Peseiro will look to win his first game when the Super Eagles take on the Leone Stars of Sierra Leone in a 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier at the Moshood Abiola Stadium, Abuja on Thursday.
Former Nigeria defender, Ifeanyi Udeze, has said the new head coach of the team, Jose Peseiro, is under pressure ahead of their first 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier against Sierra Leone on Thursday.
Peseiro has lost the two games he has been in charge of since his appointment in May.
The Eagles Super lost 2-1 Mexico and 1-0 to Ecuador in international friendlies last week.
Four home-based players got the chance to make their debut for the Eagles in the friendlies.
However, Peseiro has not included any of them in his 27-man squad invited for the clashes against Sierra Leone and Sao Tome and Principe.
“I think, for now, he just wants to do with foreign-based players for now, and see, it does not mean he does not have confidence in the home-based players, but I think, for now, he is under pressure, he put himself under pressure because he wants to get his first win, which will be very, very important to him,” Udeze told Complete Sports.
“The home-based players should just calm down, I think they will have their own opportunity also to play some games.”
