President Muhammadu Buhari has sent a goodwill message to the senior women national team, as they prepare to take on South Africa in a semi-final clash at the ongoing Africa Women’s Cup of Nations on Tuesday.
The Super Falcons finished top of Group B with seven points, while South Africa came second behind hosts Cameroon in Group A with four points.
It will be the fourth time Nigeria and South Africa will face each other in the semi-finals of the AWCON. The Falcons have won twice and lost one of the games.
On Monday night, Buhari took to his official Twitter handle, to praise Florence Omagbemi’s team for their performances so far and wish them the best against Bayana Bayana.
He wrote: “Congratulations to our Super Falcons on their fantastic performance in the AWCON 2016. We’re proud of you, and wish you all the best tomorrow!”
