Barr. Edeh who is also the proprietor of one of the fastest-rising women’s football club in Nigeria, Naija Ratels FC donated the sum of N1million to both the players and officials of the team.

“First, I want to congratulate the NFF for all they have been doing to support you, which made you to do Nigeria proud. I cannot conceal my joy for the feat you achieved today. I have always maintained that the future of football in Nigeria lies in the development of the game from the grassroots. Most of you came from academies and today, you achieved excellence. You are indeed the future of Nigerian women’s football. Keep making us proud.

“Recall that when I came the last time, I promised that any goal you score, I will give you N100, 000, but since there is no goal today (Saturday) and is a day of joy, I will make a cash donation of N1million.

The Flamingoes will be playing in the FIFA Women’s Under 17 World Cup billed for India from 11th to 30th October 2022.
