Ogun State's Governor, Dapo Abiodun, has pledged a generous support of ₦50 million to bolster the Super Falcons as they prepare for an crucial second-leg clash against the Amazons of Benin Republic in the upcoming 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
The announcement was made during a warm meeting at his office in Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta, where he welcomed the national team on Monday, as shared in a Facebook post on Tuesday.
“We were delighted to receive the Super Falcons of Nigeria in our office at Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta, ahead of their second-leg WAFCON 2026 qualifier against the Amazons of Benin Republic.
“In recognition of their inspiring performances and to further motivate them for the task ahead, we announced a support package of ₦50 million to the team,” Abiodun wrote.
He said the Falcons’ return to the MKO Abiola International Stadium, Abeokuta, was proof that the state’s investment in sports development was paying off.
“Their return to the MKO Abiola International Stadium is a validation that we are doing something right in Ogun State,” the governor said.
Abiodun also disclosed plans to transform the stadium environment into a world-class sports hub, with facilities such as a five-star hotel, cinema, and shopping complex.
