Speculations circulating in the media has it that, Super Falcons outrightly rejected their camp allowances of about $30,000 per player in Naira equivalent.
Sports analyst Aron clarified the situation on Arise TV.
According to him, the players were offered their allowances in Naira, but insisted on being paid in dollars.
“The part of the story they are not telling is that these girls were given the money,” Aron said.
“From the grapevine, the NFF proposed paying their total bonuses and camp allowances of $30,000 in Naira at the exchange rate of N1,530. The players refused, saying, ‘We don’t play in Nigeria. What do we want to do in Naira?’”
“So, the fact that they were not paid immediately is not the fault of the NFF,” Aron emphasized.
“Government directives were followed. The NSC sent the money to the NFF. The players refused Naira. It’s kind of embarrassing if you ask me.”
We’re still digging to find what is going on… Stay tuned 🏃🏿♂️
