The Management Committee of the Nigeria Women Football League headed by Aisha Falode, has sent hearty congratulations to the newly elected Executive Committee of the Nigeria Women Club Owners Association headed by Mrs Matilda Otuene Onyiloha of Rivers Angels Football Club of Port Harcourt, after their successful elections yesterday in Enugu.
Speaking through Falode, the committee expressed joy at the fruitful conduct of the elections, a situation she described as the true attribute of modern women football administration in Nigeria, where peace, harmony and professionalism remain the watchword.
Falode said Friday morning from Lagos: “The emergence of the executive committee with highly spirited and dedicated members, tells a lot about the modern day women football administration as demonstrated by the Nigeria Women Football League management board in the last two years.
“This will to a large extent boost the further development of the gender game in Nigeria, at a time the world football governing body, FIFA has decided to give women’s football a pride of place in world football.
“We are most delighted to see Matilda emerged as chairperson of the Club Owners Association, together with Emmanuel Osahon of FC Robo Queens of Lagos (Vice Chairman), Hajia Hussein’s Suleiman
of Nasarawa Amazons of Lagos (Secretary General) and Roland Gbaruko of Abia Angels as Treasurer.
“The NWFL Management Committee will work closely with the new Club Owners EXCO members in our drive to continue to develop women’s football in Nigeria.”
