President Bola Tinubu has approved the release of N12 billion to settle outstanding payments owed to the Super Eagles.

This decision comes at a crucial time as the team prepares for the Africa Cup of Nations, which is set to begin later this month.

The approved funds will be used to clear the senior national team coach salaries running up to 15 months, as well as payments of allowances and promises due to the senior national teams, females, and Under-20 national team.

The timely release of these funds will undoubtedly boost the morale of the players and coaching staff as they gear up to represent Nigeria in the prestigious tournament.

President Tinubu’s commitment to the Super Eagles and Nigerian sports in general is a clear indication of his administration’s dedication to fostering a thriving sports culture in the nation.

This move not only ensures fair compensation for the athletes and coaching staff but also strengthens Nigeria’s representation on the international sporting stage.
