We just saw a malicious report by allegedly to come from Morocco about Ashleigh Plumptre and Michelle Alozie's eligibility to play for Nigeria. The claims are false according to this report. https://owngoalnigeria.com/2025/07/28/two-players-are-not-nigerians-morocco-drag-super-falcons-to-caf-after-defeat-in-wafcon-final/

Ashleigh is the granddaughter of Harry Oludotun Plumptre who's of Yoruba origin and from Lagos State. His father's name is Tim Plumptre who's of mixed race, Nigerian father (Oludotun) and a British mother. Indigenously, we can say Ashley Plumptre is a Lagosian. She has a younger sister named Bayleigh who's more of dark skin tone than her.

Ashleigh has represented England from U-15 to U-23 levels before switching to represent Nigeria in 2021. She was officially cleared by FIFA in her first competitive match in 2021, went to the 2023 women's FIFA World Cup. So if she wasn't cleared by FIFA since that time, how come she represented Nigeria at those tournaments? Before going to college in USA, she was once approached to play for Nigeria but declined. This she later honoured with whole heart after finishing college. She has been representing Nigeria since age of 23. Morocco didn't see this but it's now that they are crying foul.
Here's a post of Ashleigh's father posing with her younger sister while showing off their Nigerian passport. https://www.facebook.com/100076187464467/posts/pfbid0S6wSMoJu8xQfpyM1PziJ7oAQ7HT3mYGPGkXpbDmWA9qp9Z1mGzUVmv7qqgrX8yACl/?app=fbl

The Nigeria Football Association can as well write back to CAF & FIFA and report Morocco. They can urge FIFA to check the list of their players who look suspicious in terms of eligibility.

Below are images of Plumptre repping Nigeria at various stages from her teen days till present and more wins would still come from her in the green and white jersey.

Pic 1: Ashleigh and her father Mr Tim Rick Plumptre at a younger age
Pic 2: Ashleigh representing Nigeria as at 2021. Morocco didn't see this at that time. No nation cried foul play.
Pic 3: Ashleigh held between her grandmother and grandfather Mr Oludotun Plumptre who's from Lagos, Nigeria.
Pic 4: A young Ashleigh Plumptre sitting beside her younger sister Bayleigh while wearing Nigerian jersey when she was a teenager. That jersey is the 2014 WC edition for the Nigerian teams.7

Not Really sure she represented Nigeria at Under 15.
She switched according to Some reports.

Pic 1: Ashleigh as a young child
Pic2: As a Leicester supporter
Pic 3: Her grandpa Oludotun Plumptre, granny, mother and dad
Pic 4: Her dad and grandpa.

That was a typo error sir. It was England she represented before at U-15 to U-23.

Rajosh:
Those ladies supporting her at the finals are not related to her in anyway.
She debunked the news.

Thank you. It would have been corrected but its now on fp and it uneditable.

GoalMoney:
Pic1: the ladies in the picture have no connection with Ashleigh Plumptre. They are fans all the way from Kwara State Nigeria.

The older woman is a wife of a Nigerian man from Kwara. He took his white wife and his two mixed race daughters to Morocco to watch the Wafcon and when the camera captured them in the final match, Nigerian bloggers started posting online that the older woman is Ashleigh's mother and her daughter, Ashleigh's sister.

The man was interviewed along with his family in one of the videos I watched recently. Ashleigh herself has denied knowing them.

Thank you. It would have been corrected but it's now on fp and uneditable.

porthouse7:
she already denied this people, they just her fans not family

Thanks. It would have been modified if not that it's now on fp and uneditable.

The pix you attached to your post is wrong, those aren't are family.... She granted an interview to dispel that last week[/quote]Noted. It would have been modified but now on fp.

Nairalander248:
Pic 1 is false, She said those ladies aren't her sisters

Noted. It would v been modified but now on fp.

femi4:
Those girls ain't her sisters. That one too na typo? You people should stop doing copy n paste, get down and do thorough research

This is g copy and paste. The error was acknowledged.
It would have been edited of not that it's now on fp.

chrisooblog:
Hi great work with the post.

The ladies in the first picture are not Ashleigh's siblings and mom. They are a mixed-race family whose dad and husband is from Kwara. They only traveled to Morocco to support Ashleigh and the Super Falcons. I watched the interview where the family confirmed this.

Kudos for the informative thread.

Thank you sir. It would have been edited but it's now on the front page.

VaginaAcademic:
she's not related in anyway to persons in pic 1

Thanks for the additional info. It would have been edited but it's not possible cos it's now on the fp.

Pic 1: Her sisters supporting her at the WAFCON finals
Pic 2: Her dad and sister after obtaining the Nigerian passport.
We d still post about Alozie's origin. So the claim by Morocco is false. We believe the Association is up to the task to give a proper response to CAF and to the public.

Morrocco with the mentality of bad loser, looking for excuses where there's none.

They better move on and start preparing for the next edition of WAFCON, instead of chasing shadows.

Nice one
Ashley the Slayer of Morocco

What she did to them e pain them Wella
Them no see road to play ball

God Bless Omoluabi
God Bless Lagos State
God Bless Federal Republic of Nigeria

Why are we wasting ttime and dignifying Morocco with a reply? Haba na

With the way she looks so happy wearing that green jersey of Nigeria as a young girl, you can tell that she has been in love with Nigeria since her childhood days.

.. this should serve as a big lesson to those unpatriotic Nigerians who keep saying evil of this country everyday and also encouraging their children to do so. Whatever you sow today you shall reap tomorrow.

Loosing is painful especially when you already thought you had the win. Make dem no vex there's always a next time

🎶 🎵 🎶
As e dey pain Dem, e dey sweet us...

As e dey sweet us, omo, e dey pain Dem 🎶🎵🎶

Make una leave Moroccan people alone...

CAF would still give them defeat No 2, when they make it clear that those players were indeed eligible to play for the Falcons .

This defest really pained these Moroccan players o.


E pain them well to the core

They will still lose the final of next year both the men and women in their home field next year.

Good one there,,ds is convincing enough except ti Morocco ba fe te..

Moroccans are only crying foul over nothing, why didn't they say all these since 2021?

I love this family they're so courageous, balanced and cute

Great people

This girl just love Nigeria... Rare

But when you're rich and comfortable... You can love anything

Dear FIFA,

Plumptre is my girlfriend. I am her one and only boo.

She's a true Nigerian. Ask me for more proof. I said so.

Best regards.

Morocco should just smoke their hashish
Enough of their highness

Nigeria should write a protest letter to CAF. Morocco should not have been allowed to play the final against nigeria. They are not an african nation. They are arabs.... So their silver medal should be given to nigeria as well 😎😎😎

OP, I doubt the pictures you labelled as Ashley sisters watching in the stand during the final match is true, this picture is that of a woman married to a Nigerian and her daughter. I watched a video of the mother and daughter with the husband being interviewed shortly after exiting the stadium after the final match.

Tomorrow, the innovators of tribalísm will deny her.
They will claim she is not a true born.
Oya na.
We move.

Is it that there is no internet in morocco to access this Information


Or is it that they just insist on being blindfolded and hoodwinked.

Yalla.. yishi

COMRADES are speechless, anyway, thanks for the clarification

LOL


IS IT BECAUSE CRIMINALS HIJACK NIGERIA GOVERNMENT.



NATURALLY, NIGERIA IS A COUNTRY THAT HAVE ALL TYPES OF BLACKS BOTH THE WHITE LOOKING, INDIAN LOOKING AND CHINESE LOOKING NIGERIANS.

She's a true Ọmọluabi and Nigerian. Even FIFA and Morocco know
