Super Falcons Captain Ajibade Slams NFF Over Poor Planning and Lack of Friendlies
Super Falcons skipper Rasheedat Ajibade has publicly criticised the Nigeria Football Federation for failing to organise warm-up matches ahead of the next international break. The WAFCON champions saw their friendly against Cape Verde cancelled at short notice, just weeks after the tournament was shifted to mid-year. Ajibade’s frustration grew when details of the April training camp were not communicated to the players or announced on the team’s official channels. “African women’s football deserves better,” Ajibade declared in her reaction to the postponement and recent Instagram post. She also shared a screenshot of her chat with an NFF official expressing embarrassment over the federation’s handling of preparations. With a World Cup qualifier looming, the lack of proper friendlies and planning has raised concerns that both Nigeria’s men and women could miss out on global tournaments.
