President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has extended heartfelt congratulations to Nigeria’s Super Falcons following their thrilling 2-1 victory over South Africa in the semi-final of the 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON).
Describing the win as “nothing short of superlative,” the President commended the team for their courage, determination, and exceptional performance, which he said exemplified the true Nigerian spirit.
In a statement released shortly after the match, President Tinubu praised the Falcons for their resilience and urged them to stay focused as they aim for a record 10th WAFCON title.
“Well deserved! Congratulations to our Super Falcons! Your incredible #WAFCON2024 semi-finals victory over South Africa today was nothing short of superlative,” Tinubu stated.
“You have made the entire nation proud. Keep soaring and don’t relent until you bring the trophy home. Go for that 10th title,” he added.
With just one game separating the Falcons from continental glory, President Tinubu assured the team of unwavering support from Nigerians both at home and in the diaspora.
“Nigerians around the world are solidly behind you. We are all waiting to welcome the trophy home,” he affirmed.
The Super Falcons will meet either Morocco or Ghana in the final as they look to reclaim their dominance in African women’s football.
