The president of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Ibrahim Gusau, has said the performances of the Super Falcons at the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand have opened up new business opportunities for the federation.
He made this known during a media parley held in Abuja to mark the one-year anniversary of the present NFF board.
According to him, corporate organizations that once shied away from sponsoring women football are now ready to do business with the federation after the Super Falcons heroics at the mundial.
Speaking further, Gusau said the federation under his leadership is cutting costs in view of the prevailing economic situation in the nation.
He also vowed to put in all efforts to see the Super Eagles reclaim the AFCON trophy after 10 years and qualify for the 2026 FIFA World Cup while backing the Super Falcons to qualify for the 2024 Olympics.
Gusau declared that preparations were in top gear to tap into the FIFA Forward 3.0 project to build a befitting hostel for the national teams instead of paying huge bills for hotel accommodation.
