The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) says that the Super Falcons squad will be hosted today by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.

” We are making arrangements to have a trophy parade with the players and their coaches in an open-roof bus, plying through Airport Road, Berger Junction, Maitama, and Wuse Market areas en route to the Presidential Villa, allowing fans a rare chance to see the WAFCON trophy up close,“ said NFF General Secretary, Dr. Mohammed.

The team is scheduled to arrive in Abuja on Monday around 12 pm, landing at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport.

This follows their dramatic victory at the 2025 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) in Morocco.

The Super Falcons staged a thrilling comeback to defeat hosts Morocco 3-2 at the Stade Olympique in Rabat on Saturday night, clinching a record-extending 10th WAFCON title.

The Nigerian women’s national team, the Super Falcons, defeated Morocco on Saturday night to win the 2024 Women’s African Cup of Nations (WAFCON).

The Falcons pulled off a remarkable 3-2 comeback win over host nation Morocco, completing what they dubbed #MissionX.

The West Africans had to fight back from two goals in the first half to win 3-2 in Rabat.

The hosts came flying out of the blocks and scored twice. But the Falcons came out strongly in the second half and scored through Esther Okoronkwo’s penalty.

Okoronkwo then turned provider for Folashade Ijamilusi who drew Nigeria level.

Jennifer Echegini then got on the end of a free-kick to score a late winner.

The victory means Nigeria have now won a record-extending 10 WAFCON titles.

World soccer governing body, FIFA, has opened its major Africa office in the Moroccan capital, Rabat, further confirming the North African country as the hub of its operation on the continent.

The new office will coordinate with existing FIFA regional offices in Brazzaville, Dakar, Johannesburg and Kigali, in directing and implementing key policies for the development of African football across all levels.

The state-of-the-art office at the Mohammed VI Complex aims to strengthen support for African federations in their development projects and further reflects FIFA’s desire to establish a lasting presence on the continent.

The opening of the office follows a signing of a Host Agreement last December in Marrakech between the key stakeholders: FIFA, the Kingdom of Morocco and Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF).

Rabat becomes the latest city to host a FIFA office after Paris, Miami and Jakarta, and reinforces FIFA’s engagement with all regions and affirms commitment to developing football across the globe.

FIFA President Gianni Infantino said: “Today is certainly a wonderful day, it’s a special day, a glorious day, a joyful day.

We will write, in gold letters, the wonderful history of FIFA, of football in Africa, of football in Morocco, of football in the world.

“It’s an incredible and beautiful complex, and I want to start by thanking Morocco, thanking His Majesty King Mohammed VI, for making this possible.

“It is witness to a country that is projected into the future, to a continent that is projected into the future, and to the work that all of us do for this incredible sport.”
