Did you know Super Falcons star Rashidat Ajibade is championing a cause that goes beyond the football pitch? While her personal rewards are heavenly, her drive for justice on the field is very much earthbound.

Ajibade, as captain, has bravely spoken out against the NFF's lagging preparation for the upcoming WAFCON. She's highlighting a stark contrast in attention and resources given to the men's and women's teams, despite the Super Falcons' significant achievements for Nigeria.

With outstanding bonuses still unpaid, it's clear why frustration is mounting. The NFF needs to step up, get their house in order, and recognize the massive business potential of women's football. Join the conversation and share your thoughts!

00:45because there are still so many outstanding bonuses that are yet to be paid to these girls.
