Nigeria have defeated Burkina Faso 2-0 in the first leg of a 2016 CHAN qualifier played in Port Harcourt. Bature Yaro put Nigeria in front with a clean strike from an acute ankle after 24 minutes.
The Super Eagles doubled their lead in the 76th minute through a penalty taken by Gbolahan Salami after Ezekiel Bassey was fouled inside the box.
The return leg will be played in Ouagadougou on October 25 with the overall winners advancing to the final tournament in Rwanda in 2016.
