“I am particularly happy for Gusau for this great achievement. It’s not easy considering the enormous work he is saddled with. We can see under his administration the Super Falcon players have done well both individually and collectively.

“A 24 year wait for the prestigious Men’s Africa Footballer of the Year happened in his time, also sweeping up the Women’s category of Best Player and Goalkeeper is a testament of his abilities and good intentions to run football as the results are evident for all to see.

“I am very happy, indeed this year has been hugely rewarding for Nigeria football and for our country as a whole. I congratulate Osimhen, Oshoala and Nnadozie, and I congratulate the Super Falcons as a team for bringing us this honour,” said Mouktar.
