BBC reports, African champions Super Falcons staged
a sit-in protest in an Abuja hotel on Tuesday demanding their
entitlements for winning the African Women’s Cup of Nations in Cameroon
on Saturday from the Nigeria Football Federation,
The team clinched their eighth African title with a 1-0 win over hosts Cameroon.
“We are tired of the lies and false promises from the NFF,” one player, who insisted on anonymity, told BBC Sport.
It was gathered that since March, the Coach, Super Falcons Florence Omagbemi and her assistants received only a month’s salary.
The NFF said in a statement - “We will pay you all monies you are being owed as soon as we receive same from the government.”
In an interview with
Telefoot, Eto’o ruled out a return to the squad for the African Cup of
Nations and World Cup qualifiers because of his age.
“Oh no! I’m a little old for that … There’s a young generation. Even if
they have almost the same age with me,” said Eto’o.
Now 35, Eto’o first played against Nigeria in 1997 at the LG Cup in
Tunis, before two appearances at the African Cup of Nations in 2000 and
2004.
He scored two goals in those three matches against the Super Eagles.
