Tinubu Confers Super Falcons With National Honours

President Bola Tinubu has conferred national honours of Officer of the Order of the Niger on the Super Falcons following their victory at WAFCON.

He also announced the award of the naira equivalence of $100,000 to each to the 24 players, and the naira equivalence of $50,000 to the technical team.

In addition, the President gave each of the players three-bedroom apartments.
