Attacking midfielder, Amarachi Okoronkwo’s superb header that cut the Asaba ladies goalkeeper, Rita Akarekor napping in the 42nd minute proved adequate to hand the side the championship coveted trophy as well as the princely prize money.

The Lafia side achieved the performance unbeaten enroute to the final after the side amassed seven points during the round robin stage to top the four-team log.
