The First Lady of Nigeria, Sen. Oluremi Tinubu, has charged the Super Falcons to bring back the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup title.
The First Lady, who made this known on Saturday when she hosted the team to a dinner ahead of its departure for the tournament which starts July 20 and ends August 20, has promised to receive the team herself when they bring the cup home.
While expressing her faith in the ability and pedigree of the team to excel at the mundial, the first lady, represented by Dr Betta Edu, the APC National Women Leader, urged the players to be committed and play together as a team.
According to her, “It is important that you remain committed by playing together as a team; no one should think that she’s better player than the other.
“It is only when you play as a team that you can record success. It is my expectation that this time, you will surpass your previous efforts.
“I am sure that 99.9 per cent of Nigerians will stay glued to their television sets to watch you. Please try your best to bring the cup home.”
