Nigeria’s First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, on Monday, welcomed the Nigerian female football team, the Super Falcons, at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
After a tough match against the English team, the Lionesses, last Monday, August 7, the Super Falcons, unfortunately, exited the ongoing FIFA Women’s World Cup co-hosted by Australia and New Zealand. The decisive moment came in the form of a penalty shootout.
This event marked the continuation of the First Lady’s efforts to boost the morale of Nigerian female sports figures. Just the previous Monday, she had a similar gathering with the triumphant Nigerian female basketball team, D’Tigresses.
These meetings serve as a platform for her to offer words of encouragement and support to these athletes who represent the country on the global stage.
