President Goodluck
Ebele Jonathan heartily congratulated Nigeria’s under-20 female football team,
the Falconets on their qualification for the final match of the ongoing FIFA
tournament in Canada.
The
President made this known in a press release from Presidential spokesman, Dr.
Reuben Ababti.
The
President applauded the Falconets' scintillating display which earned them a
6-2 victory in Wednesday’s semi-final encounter with North Korea as
well as their very commendable performance in earlier matches.
As the
Falconets prepare for the final match of the tournament against Germany on
Sunday, President Jonathan has urged them to put in their very best effort to
win the under-20 Female World Cup for Nigeria and Africa for the first time in
the history of the competition.
He
assured the girls and their handlers of the full support of the Federal
Government and the prayers of all Nigerians for their triumph on Sunday.
