The NFF have insisted that unpaid qualification bonus for the 2024 WAFCON is an issue between them and the Super Falcons.
The general secretary of the Nigerian Football Federation, Mohammed Sanusi, when asked by The Guardian of London why it is owing the players money, tersely said: “The issue is purely a matter between the players and the NFF.”
Another NFF official said: “Our women, throughout the continent, are doing phenomenal things on the field.
“We, as officials, as those responsible for governance, have to do a lot better. The quality of the talent on the pitch must be matched by our management of the game off it, if the African game is to reach its potential.”
The delayed 2024 WAFCON kicks off today with hosts Morocco up against Zambia in a cracking opener.
The Super Falcons will begin their campaign tomorrow against Tunisia with kick-off in Casablanca fixed for 5pm.
