Lmao! So when they win the World Cup the president will give them GCFR, the entire budget and plots of land inside Aso Rock…lolz! The Super Eagles deserve all the gifts but come on, those gifts were …lips sealed!
Last night at the Presidential Villa in
Abuja, President Goodluck
Jonathan hosted African champions the Super
Eagles of Nigeria
to a dinner where he presented them with National
honours and splashed
cash gifts on them.
For winning the African Cup of Nations and bringing home the trophy,
each player received from Mr President N5m. Head coach Stephan Keshi
received the sum of N10m, other coaches received N5m while the team’s
technical staff received N2m. The players and officials were all given a plot
of land each in Abuja.
GEJ also conferred National honours on the players and Keshi; the former
were conferred with the Member of the Order of the Niger (MON), team
captain Joseph Yobo was conferred with the Officer of the Federal Republic
along with assistant coaches Daniel Amokachi and Ike Shorunmu.
Stephan Keshi got the Commander of the Order of the Niger.
Aliko Dangote donated N5 million to each player and technical crew of the
Super Eagles while business moguls Tony Elumelu and Jim Ovia donated half a million dollars each to the Super Eagles
