All these our noise up and down no dey move me o.
Morocco no talk say she no be Nigerian o, na eligibility them dey probe.
And Nigeria wey I know no dey ever dey good with paperwork. And I just hope we never commit blunder

If naija didn't do proper paper work FIFA wouldn't have approved her switch to play for falcons na.

Haba mana morocco

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.

Help me tell Hanti Badenotu

Everybody is now insulting this country because of what bad government is ruling the country see Morocco kwaa.

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.

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

Before FIFA cleared her to represent Nigeria, FIFA must have done their background checks with enough evidence.
Morocco should have known this.
The spirit of a drowning man is dangerous, they want others to drown with them.

Such sore lovers.

Why not accept your defeat with dignity?

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.
Source: https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/nigeria-star-ashleigh-plumptre-turned-30637487

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.

She's never lived in Nigeria or experienced the hardship and turmoil associated with living in Nigeria due to extreme levels of unchecked corruption and criminality. Nigerians have a right to complain when things are not going right but you zombies would always tag them as unpatriotic.

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

Did she live here?
Did she experience what "the unpatriotic " experience daily here..abeg park

The report from the website was for traffic, don't take it serious

Only International football is uniting this country called Nigeria.
If not that this issue is not football related and that Nigeria won, this would have bn turned into tribal war between Yorubas and the Igbos.
You would've heard "why do the Yorubas always have identity problems?"
If Nigeria had lost the game, that girl would've bn blamed so much cos she was confused in the finals. Her coordination were poor. She can't even run.

All the same, One Nigeria in football

Like seriously this Moroccans don't know that Nigeria has a lot of white citizens

Them see Ashley them dey shake
What I'd them come see the full house

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.

Some one that played last FIFA world cup including Alozie. It seems Morocco knows more than FIFA, by the way, they should continue dwelling in agony

This, if she represented Britain nationally and switched to Nigeria, she must have gone through FIFA approval for the switch. My understanding of FIFA rules is that you need one grandparent to have been born in the country you want to switch or be a resident for certain amount of years. If her age did not disqualify her, she is eligible though ancestral link by one grandparent being born in Nigeria

The comment you quoted did not say it is wrong to complain about Nigeria. The comment is against the people speaking evils of Nigeria. Are you among them?

If you are one of those speaking evils of this country, I'll advise you to stop it. It won't do you any good. Psalm 122:6 says, "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: 'May those who love you be secure.'"

PUNANI01:
Nigeria and fraud

How?
Do you understand the topic at all?
Is that what was in the news?

Femight1:
Not Really sure she represented Nigeria at Under 15.
She switched according to Some reports.

Did anyone say she represented Nigeria before she was 21?

You beat them and still want to teach them how to cry

Someone that lost his family member to kidnappers cannot relate to what you posted there

Morocco’s claims about Ashleigh Plumptre and Michelle Alozie’s eligibility are nonsense! 😡 Ashleigh’s got deep Nigerian roots, cleared by FIFA since 2021, and has been repping Nigeria proudly. Morocco’s just salty after losing the WAFCON final. Nigeria should push back and check their players too!

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