According to Oriental News and other social media blogs. President Tinubu gave the each of the Flamingo's players 100 million. Well it is nice and they can use this with other incentives to start life. They should invest with them and not to lavish them and only to suffer in the old age. Though they are still active and more winnings are coming but it will be better for them to utilize this gifts.

Agbe, we are already know that the so-called promise it’s just audio money. What would be here in the next 3 to 4 months and these girls would come out to complain that they did not receive any money. Rather than making such bogus promises why not take action first. The hundred million naira is good but what opportunities can the government can NF expose these girls to so that as they their prime, they can develop to their full potential both nationally and internationally. These are the kind of questions that I expect the NFA to have on their mind and begin to make plans about.

They will be lucky if they get one tenth of what they are promised. It’s a normal routine for politicians to make big promises to athletes when they win and disappear when it’s time to pay. understand this is part of elections campaign strategy but there is no way these kids are getting 100 million naira each.

When i first read about the news of 100 million each to players, I had to pause and take a deep thought, yes I was happy about the fact that the president is bringing out such huge amount to appreciate the flamingos, but the second thought came into my mind, is this man going to fulfill his promise, we saw the news of the other female players that won a competition and they were promised about $100,000 each, it took almost a year or two for that money to be fulfilled and it was because of the fact that one of the players went to a podcast and made the announcement that they've not been paid the amount that was promised and that was when the Federal government swang into action to pay that money, so I pray the flamingos don't suffer the same Fate because these are political promises and until you see the money, that is when you should have a believe.

100m my a**. We all know this is a lie. Maybe one blogger is pushing fake news to trend because this can't be the government coming out to say this. Talk more of his excellence, Tinubu. Let the U17 women players ask the Super Eagles. None of the money promised by the government has been given to the Super Eagles. In fact, the little treatment the Super Eagles deserve is not given to them. Incompetent government with their fake promises. We all know 100 million will not be given to those girls. If each of the girls get 10 million naira each they should be very happy.

It’s really a good news to hear, those girls made us provide, and they should be appreciated. I just hope those girls will be able to receive the money, we all know how things are done in this country, it has been announced publicly that the president promised them 100 million each, but the question is will they be able to get the money, hope some people won’t end up embezzling the money? Is the president really ready to release the money? Hope he is not just making fake promise. Am sure when those girls receive the money, they not going to lavish it because opportunity like this might not come again.

It's really sad that the corruption in the country has just been so much  that the president will make a statement and it's received with so much doubt, some years back,  when we hear promises like this we can be sure it will be done, it will be a really terrible precedence if this government is unable to fulfil this promise they made,  considering the kind of amount they are spending on camping, this is an amount they can possibly afford to appreciate this girls who has brought honor to the Nation.

These players are actually deserving of any form of appreciation for the performance they have shown.

Nigeria will face Tanzania in the third match of the group stage of the African Cup of Nations.It seems that this match might be tough for the Super Eagles as they lost against the Guinea Bissau team in their previous match. In fact Nigeria is still ahead in the head to head record between these two teams also we noticed that in this African Cup of Nations League group stage match Nigeria has won one match but Tanzania has not managed to win any match.

However another important point is that Atletico Madrid player Ademola Lookman will lead the attack of Nigeria team in this game as I noticed that the best striker of this team Victor Osimhen will not be able to play in this important match due to a knee injury, so for now it seems that the attack part of this team may be a bit weak in this match but still we can imagine that Nigeria will be able to take away the victory from this match.

I'm contemplating that this will not be a tough match for the super eagles, rather I'm of the opinion that the players are going to be playing under a bit of pressure due to the loss they conceded against Guinea Bissau. On the other,

It will also serve as a source of motivation for the eagles to get a win in order to appease the fans.

I'm sure they will get a good result this time, they have the home advantage and victory is sure for them cause they need every point they can get to make amends as soon as possible to avert a repeat of what happened during the world cup qualification games last year.

I get your worry, judging from previous record the APC Tinubu government have not kept to their word on any issue, they have been lying from the day one and because of that a lot of Nigerians have lost hope on them, but i feel this time will be different because it is election season, Tinubu will not want anything that will make him have further media attack adding to the one he is receiving now so he would want to fulfill his promise to the Flamingos Just to buy support from the media and other key stakeholders.

I just pray this should not be an audio savings bond because this government and lies are 5/6. They are well known as promise and fail government.

The presidential campaign just started few weeks ago, and I doubt that the presidency will make such promises at this critical moment and not fulfilled it. Because despite the fact that APC government still needs more money to campaign for the re-election of the president, I don't think 2 billion Naira will be an issue to the president, because even a state governor can still pay this money and yet not affect the economy of the state. So I strongly believe that since the message to the flamingos was said by the wife of the president when they came to visit the president, the money will actually be paid.

Yes your right, but considering the level of failed promises and how the leaders our government played politics I won't blame whoever that doubt or argue about this pronouncement becoming political to seek attention of the public support and commendation of their good work, because if I really recall I don't think U17 have much prize coming from FIFA to the government apart from some individual donations and little things from FIFA and our government don't spend where they don't benefits double of what they put in as personal interest, not that the money is not there if really they want to grant or redeem the promise it's small fraction to do and won't even shake any sector, all everyone is just contemplating is if it won't be air rewards but if it's as fast as possible it means they are really serious and that will be back with hidden agenda to draw attention as way of support on the election campaign on going.

I join other Nigerians to congratulate the Flamingos for defeating Japan, and bringing home gold for us, the president did very well to promise them big rewards, the girls truly deserve the 100 million naira each. Like most Nigerians we don't trust our government because they can promise and fail but I hope that this time that it would be different because of the timing, election is in January, and Nigerians are waiting to hear when the money will be giving to the flamingos. If he doesn't give them the money it would amount to shooting himself in the leg because Nigerians wants accountability, a little thing like this can cause distrust in an election period. I'm wishing the flamingos more success in their individual careers.

The flamingos did us proud and they merit what amount that should be given to them as you said, but I didn't see anything the president did because it is promise, Tinubu is a politician and if you don't know those to be afraid of, it is Nigerian politicians, they are wicked and heart, they think everything should be political, even though everyone know their antics, they keep doing same thing, is it that that cash gift can nkb be given to them immediately, the money is there, why not give them without making empty promises, or is it a political manifesto, I just hope the flamingos are presented with something at the end.

For me, I’m more concerned about seeing these girls doing doing great after this whole hype because regardless of the amount the president gives them and whether the money gets to them, it’s nothing close to what they stand to achieve if their career path is protected and they continue improving till they get to the senior team.

We’ve seen a lot of past players that were only seen in situations like this and afterwards, no one hears about them again. Especially the skippo, she needs to get the needed support that will attract clubs.

In my opinion I would say giving the Falcons $100,000 each of them would not be a bad idea but let say it like giving a farmer a bag of rice after the harvest but still refusing to give them some fertilizer to grow well and ideally if a rice gram doesn’t have fertilizer it wouldn’t grow well, this is how I see it…

Bro.. In this Nigeria, collect the one you see ooo, there's no guarantee a better offer is on the way. If the federal government can give cash rewards to them, at least they can use it to source relocation plans and better opportunities outside the country. Sadly, I don't see that coming as FG is more concerned with election matters, buying thousands of Range rovers and Prado jeeps for allys and fighter bikes for the military.

They have announced the women are to receive a ₦100 million 5 year FG savings bond each, Coach receives ₦100 million cash and coaching crew ₦50 million cash each. The issue is when the money would be paid to them because announcing it on the media is different from remitting it to the deserving people

The president has never promised to gift Nigeria players and he did do, I think you exercise some patience and wait for him to fulfil his promise to the flamingos. What is mere a hundred million Naira that Nigeria can't give out to appreciate our flamingo for bringing home gold medals, they deserve more than that.

Even though the president hasn't been ruling well, but there are things that you shouldn't be politicise, making empty promises wil trigger a hash criticism against him by Nigerians, I hope it doesn't get to that because the president is too honourable to make such a promise and not fulfil it. I believe our super flamingos will receive their rewards as promised by the president because he is an honourable man and will Keep to his words.

Just recently they bought some Prado SUV worth over a hundred million naira each for the youth leaders of APC and they were over ten in number, so i don't see this as a big deal for them, provided they will use it to push their election campaign, they will go ahead and fulfill the promise, but then its not assured, its also possible they can say they will do it after the elections, these politicians are capable of anything at any time. But it will be a bad one to not fulfil the promise to these Athletes, they are deserving of it and not to use them for political publicity. The wife of the president has actively been pushing in many ways for the success of the reelection of the president and this will be another avenue to help them campaign, i believe they will want to utilize it very well.

Let's hope they are given the money because it will be an encouragement to them. After all, they actually deserve it, and because those guys are not treated well, and most of them are just playing for the sake of passion, and we are waiting for them to actually fulfill their promises, and it's not for the government to make promises they should make the kind of promises they know they can fulfill in time and not just for the sake of the media. Because what the government knows how to do best is to promise just for them to get the attention of people, especially now that the election is closing in, they want to politicize everything just for votes.

Guy by now you supposed know the kind of person the president be. Go and make research of the caliber of his. He has promised heaven and earth for Nigeria and the only way to have constant light in Nigeria is to remove Goodluck from the president and they gang up for the coalition to remove him and when the so call APC took over, Nigeria became better to worst. And Tinubu said he would provide 3,000,000 jobs every year. Even one we have not seen. When Goodluck promised the Super Falcons, he gave them and this is a campaign period so I don't have good hope for this promises but let wait and see.

[Jerrycrypto2024]

Today match between Nigeria and tanzania, the team is able to have a goal within 9 minutes of the game likewise south Africa, gotten a goal against their opponent before 10 minutes of the game, my greatest fear is not having early goal mostly the Nigeria team but having the capacity to defend and score more or even win with that early goals because some occasionally early go goal our team do score land them in lossing, tracing some past record as they may felt they are having advantage and begin to fall back instead of pushing for more goals starting defense in first half won't earn them wining I pray it won't be otherwise this time.

[Majestic-milf]

 It's not about scoring early that determines the outcome of the game because already the Super Eagles have conceded and are currently drawing 1-1 with Tanzania. The worst thing to happen to Nigeria is to lose this game because they need the points more than their opponents to qualify as Tanzania have already qualified and will only be looking to frustrate the Super Eagles.
 I'm just here wondering how Nigeria got this poor to the point of struggling with small sides like Tanzania.
