Super Eagles forward, Gbolahan Salami was the hero of the day with a brace; one in each half to secure an important win.
The Congolese side reduced the deficit through Mombo Lwamba to set up a second leg cracker in a fortnight.
MK Etancheite missed a glorious chance to level the scores when they were awarded a penalty after Monday Osagie handled the ball in his area but the Captain Kabangu Kadima blasted it over the bar.
The return leg in DRC looks open as both teams have a chance of progressing to the next round; a 1-0 win for MK Etanchetie is enough to knock out the Nigeria contenders whilst Warri Wolves needs only a draw.
