STATE HOUSE PRESS RELEASE

VP SHETTIMA LEADS FG'S DELEGATION TO SUPER EAGLES' AFCON FINALS

President Tinubu directs maximum support and urges the Eagles to make Nigeria, Africa proud

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, has directed Vice President Kashim Shettima to lead a presidential team to the finals of the African Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Côte d'Ivoire.

The Vice President had also represented the President at the semi-finals when the Super Eagles defeated South Africa in a pulsating encounter. The Nigerian national team is set to face host, Côte d'Ivoire, in a thrilling rematch at the Alassane Ouattara Stadium in Abidjan on Sunday, February 11.

The match will rekindle the memories of Nigeria’s 1-0 victory in the group stage secured through Captain William Troost-Ekong's penalty.

Recognizing the unifying power of football and the immense role the Super Eagles play in fostering national pride and unity, the President, His Excellency, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, believes that Vice President Shettima's presence at the finals alongside the delegation is a testament to the government's unwavering support for the team and its dedication to their success.

The federal government calls on all Nigerians, both at home and abroad, to unite in support of the Super Eagles, and to raise their voices in encouragement, and create a wave of national pride that propels the team to glory.

Hmmm on a Sunday fa with free Jet and VIP treatment ... You still no wan go ...are you sure you are MKO protege bayi ....

Gd

Lead a presidential team with billions of naira to be spent for the trip.

Shettima should take just two people with him to save cost.... But that won't happen, they rather take an entourage there with Item 7 (Toke Makinwa) and lavish tax payers money on frivolities

Another billions of naira would be budgeted for that irresponsible appearance.

And why shettima boko?

Emilokan is still not going. I hope he is in good health

I can imagine how much will be looted from this

Again

Anything APC touches

Shettima with his frightening face.

Opolo eyes no go again? 🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱

So Toke Makinwa is government item 7 😂🤣😂😂

Awon ojelu

Make them no go oh... Make our win no dey like promise and fail.

They will come back disappointed

Imagine President and Vice President heading to another country to watch a cup final. I have never seen this clownery in my over 2 decades of existence on earth. This APC government is in need of an achievement so much that they are willing to hold on to a sports competition as a major achievement while the government primary responsibilities are left in tatters.
Nigerians are you people not wise at all?

Jagaban no one go die

While the country sinks

Nairalanders be careful so that you will not be the genesis of the crisis that will break Nigeria .
Nor be everything we go dey criticise.
You are not in Government, accept where you are and do your best in the position. How can everyone in Government not know better than you!!!!
Goodluck to Super Eagles tomorrow.

The only support we need now is for Tinubu to resign

It's not a bad one.

Waste of scarce resources


Make una get sense for once, your going there with your some called delegates, will not make Super Eagles to win.

Our prayers, is that they lift the cup on Sunday.
