The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), has re-appointed Peter Dedevbo as the coach of the U-20 women team.
NFF President Amaju Pinnick, approved the appointment on behalf of the Executive Committee.
The decision is, however, subject to ratification and recommendation by the Technical and Development Committee.
Speaking on the new development, chairman of the Technical and Development Committee, Felix Anyasi-Agwu, said: “The Peter Dedevbo-led crew did well to get the Falconets to the final of the U-20 World Cup in Canada last year. Most of his players have been snapped up by the senior team, which shows that he built a good team.
“We will give the crew all the support that is necessary to qualify the Falconets for the 2016 U-20 Women’s World Cup in Papua New Guinea, and for the team to go there and win the trophy.”
Dedevbo will also return with his assistants Toyin Ayinla, Wemimo Mathew Olanrewaju and Auwal Bashar, ahead of the Falconets’ 2016 U-20 Women’s World Cup qualifying fixture against Liberia next month.
