Anichebe, who has been battling ongoing injury problems, has been excluded from the Super Eagles squad for the Africa Cup of Nations next year.
But the player is focused on getting back his best form and fitness for Everton, and was pleased with his contribution against the Hammers on Saturday which took the Merseyside club up to fourth place.
"It was a great game and good goal after a long layoff. It was a deserved victory away from home," he told Everton TV.
"We started the game well, we know West Ham is a difficult place to come because they come forward with ball often. We fought hard after we were down to get the victory.
"Some guys are out injured and I hope they return quickly. We have a tight group and anyone who comes in must do well for the team as I did. We want to stay up."
