The Super Falcons have been urged by President Jonathan to go all out and defeat Cameroon in the final of the Namibia 2014 African Women’s Championship in Windhoek on Saturday.
Jonathan, in a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Reuben Abati, urged the team to use the Cameroon tie to continue their glorious domination of African football.
The President said he was looking forward to receiving the players with the trophy in Abuja.
The statement read, “As the Falcons prepare to face Cameroon in the AWC final, President Jonathan urges them to go all out to continue their glorious domination of African Women’s football with another victory.
“Although the Falcon’s scintillating performance thus far in this year’s AWC tournament makes them the bookmakers’ favourites to win the final match, President Jonathan urges them not to take victory against Cameroon for granted, but to prepare very well and put their acclaimed soccer skills and strength to the best possible use on Saturday to achieve victory.
“The President assures the Falcons and their handlers of the full support and best wishes of the Federal Government and all soccer-loving Nigerians as they strive to add another international sporting laurel to the glory of their fatherland.”
