Falcons fail to return to Nigeria

The reigning African women champions, the super Falcons failed to return to Nigeria today as expected as the team is insisting on receiving all its allowances before leaving South Africa.

 

Nigeriasports.com can report that it was a show of shame at the holiday Inn garden court Milpark hotel of the Nigerian side as the ladies blatantly refused all entrities to return to Nigeria today and pick up their winning bonuses in Lagos.

The girls who had dreamt all through the night about their 6,000 dollars winning bonuses owed them by the NFA, woke up to the rude shock that money was not available in Jo'burg but they can only pick up the money in Lagos.

The development got the girls enraged and right there decided not to catch the SAA flight to convey them back home despite the pleadings of the NFA chairman, Ibrahim Galadima, the leader of delegation, Ayo Omidiran and even the Nigerian ambassador to South Africa, Dr Tunji Olagunju.

Nigeriasports.com can report that only the NFA chairman made the trip back home as other officials were forced to remain so as to take care of the team. It is a sad development for Nigerian football", Galadima could only say at the airport.

Reports Opatola Adewole, Jo'burg South Africa.

SHAME! SHAME!! SHAME!!!
please tell the Falcon not to come home at all.....they should stay back in South africa until their money is been paid.........if they get to Nigeria...they wont get the money...just "empty promises"...and also the sports-writer should be ready to fight and support the Falcons now against "witch-hunting"...they would want to frustrate this girls by no inviting them for future competition but i bet you ...it is only Nigeria that will pay for it.
Once again...SHAME to all that are responsible for this including the sports Minister...cos we know Nigeria has the MONEY but "greed" is taking it place...."Ole.....Barawo...shame !"

WELL MY ADVICE GOES TO THE SUPPER FALCONS PLEASE WHERE EVER YOU GIRLS ARE READING MY MESSAGE RIGHT NOW.PLEASE TAKE IT.BCOS IT WILL HELP WHAT I AM SAYING IS THAT NO MATTER WHAT THE NFA HAS PROMISE DON'T COME BACK.

EVENTHOUGH YOU HAVE SEE THE MONEY DON'T COME BACK.UNTILL YOU FEEL AND TOUCH THE MONEY.BCOS THIS SO CALLED NFA THEY ARE THIEF THEY CAN ONLY PROMISE BUT THEY CAN'T PAY SO BE WISE.AS YOU CAN SEE THEY PROMISE TO GIVE YOU GIRLS THE MONEY AFTER THE FINAL BUT NOW WHERE IT IS? SO THAT IS GOING TO BE WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF YOU COMES BACK WITH THE TROPHY TO NIGERIA SO IS BETTER YOU STAY THERE.

BCOS NIGERIA IS NOT WHAT TO BE A COUNTRY..IF IT WILL BE POSSIBLE LET THE PRESIDENT CHANGE THE NAME TO FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF BLACK MONKEYS FOR THERE IS NOTHING SPECIAL IN THE NAME NIGERIA AT ALL.......

First of all i will like to put a big shame on the sports ministers head, then the NFA. This are the useless people running nigerian sports. Everybody including the sports minister should be sacked, they dont know anyting about sports talk less of football. Again i commend the falcons for their protects, those girls have set a good example for others to follow. I hope the super eagles will do the same if they are in similar situation. UP FALCONS, SUPER GIRLS, DOWN NFA USELESS PEOPLE GOD PUNISH THEM .
