Super Falcons captain Rasheedat Ajibade has said the team is still awaiting the $100,000 reward and other commitments promised by the Federal Government after their 2024 Women?s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) victory in Morocco.

In an interview with Chude Jideonwo, Ajibade confirmed the delay in payment.

Chude asked: ?Have they delivered the $100,000??

?We have not received our money, but hopefully, it would be paid. They have not paid, all the promises, we have not received anything,? she replied.

Ajibade added with a touch of humour: ?Because people want to suffocate me and they?ve shared the money into percentage, and we?ve not received it. But when they pay, it?d be announced. Our match bonuses are also work in progress.?

Ajibade captained the Super Falcons to their record-extending WAFCON title in Morocco.

Following the victory, President Bola Tinubu conferred national honours of Officer of the Order of Niger (OON) on the players and technical crew, while also announcing rewards of $100,000 and a three-bedroom flat for each team member. (THE NATION)
