President Bola Tinubu has congratulated the Super Falcons of Nigeria on their
victory at the 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations, WAFCON, and in the
process, secured their record 10th continental title.
The Falcons made a phenomenal comeback to defeat host nation Morocco 3-2.
The president who made this known via his official X account assured the Super
Falcons of a befitting celebration upon their return from Morocco, where the
team won the WAFCON title for a record-extending 10th time on Saturday.
Although Morocco took an early lead courtesy of the tournament’s highest goal
scorer, Ghizlane Chebbak, in the 12th minute, and doubled their advantage
when Sanaâ Mssoudy found the back of the net in the 24th minute, Nigeria,
however, responded with a spirited second-half display.
In a similar vein, Oluremi Tinubu, the First Lady of Nigeria, commended the
Super Falcons for their significant achievement, attributing it to their resilient
spirit.
Meanwhile, the Enugu state Governor, Peter Mbah, has congratulated the
Super Falcons of Nigeria on their 10th Women African Cup of Nations,
WAFCON, title, saying that they demonstrated the resilience of the Nigerian
spirit.
Mbah, who took to his verified social media handle, @PNMbah, to celebrate the
impressive Nigerian side wrote, Congratulations, Super Falcons, for their well-
deserved WAFCON 2025 triumph.
