President Buhari in a congratulatory message by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu, in Abuja on Sunday, praised the Falcons for their fighting spirit, incredible skills, team work, discipline and focus, which enabled them to defeat the Ivorian Dame Elephantes at the finals of the championship.
The President also commended all officials and management of the team, led by Thomas Dennerby, for their sacrifice, commitment and diligence in winning the championship.
Buhari further urged the officials and players to stay focused and work with the same zeal that won the WAFU Women’s Cup Champions as they prepare for the forthcoming FIFA Women’s World Cup in France.
