Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Former Kaduna Central senator, Shehu Sani, has urged President Bola Tinubu to redeem the $100,000 promise to the Super Falcons.<\/p>\n

He was reacting to Super Falcons forward, Rasheedat Ajibade\u2019s remark that the players were yet to receive the money promised by Tinubu.<\/p>\n

Tinubu had pledged $100,000 to each of the 24 players and $50,000 to each technical team member for winning the 2024 Women\u2019s African Cup of Nations, WAFCON, in Morocco.<\/p>\n

In addition, each player and technical crew member is also to receive a 3-bedroom flat.<\/p>\n

However, Ajibade said they were yet to receive the money pledged by the president.<\/p>\n

Posting on X, Sani wrote: \u201cReading that The Falcons are yet to receive the $100k is shocking. I urge the FG to fast track and redeem the pledge made to The Falcons and D\u2019Tigress. Waiting for money is mentally stressful.\u201d<\/p>\n
