I think they've got enough monetary rewards, don't you? They should ask anyone that wants to give them more money, to give it to an orphanage or old peoples home in their name......especially the wealthy foreign players like Obi Mikel.

Some people are busy saying the govt is taking this gesture too far. I for one, think they deserve it, cos remember no one gave them a chance before and during the AFCON tournament.
Keshi and his lads have done well and they should be rewarded, and while we are at it, also encourage the younger and older ones. grin grin grin

My gift better pass your gift.

Those players deserve every bit. Best they utilise it. The government has a penchant of forgetting past glories.

So, please let them keep collecting o.

All these cash gifts is just plain hypocrisy.

Government didn't provide enough cash to develop sports in the country but when the super eagles win the AFCON they decided to show-off by splashing money on the team.

Why not splash money on sports development so that corporate bodies can adequately reward these athletes.
