The 1st Vice President of the Nigeria Football Federation, Chief Mike Umeh has charged the senior national women’s team, Super Falcons to go all out and achieve good victory over their Cameroonian counterparts in tomorrow’s 2012 Olympic Games qualifying showdown in Abuja.
Umeh made this charge yesterday as he looked forward to their triumph to enable the present administration celebrate appropriately its one year tenure in office. “This administration has been through so much in the past one year but we can also beat our chests on several accomplishments, which have come despite concerted efforts by a few elements to derail the ship of Nigerian football.
We have never really been bothered by the activities of these fellows because we are fully focused on working hard to make Nigerian football better. In the past one year, we have won trophies and qualified several national teams for global championships, and we have effected changes in administration that we believe will begin to yield fruits in the very near future.
Football is a game of passion, so we hold no grudges against those who have remained very critical of everything we have done. But the important thing is that we are all working towards the goal of making the Nigeria game better than it is at the moment. I sincerely implore those who have genuine contributions to make to Nigerian football to continue to speak up in the interest of the game, but it is important to be constructive so that they do not destroy it,” said Umeh.
