The Unpaid Salaries and Wages: Super Falcons Episode

The Super Falcons of Nigeria, the Most successful female football team on the Continent of Africa, returning from a Win over the Cameroonian side to clench the title for the 8th record time. One would expect that they return home to meet a well set table, even in the presence of their enemies.

But no, the cancer of unpaid salaries and wages that has eaten the core of Nigeria as a country has spread to the Good men and women of the Sports world in Nigeria. The show of strength, skill, determination and most of all, patriotism that these fine women show on the field of football is not enough for the cocoons in charge (NFF) to prepare a table for this young African Women Champions
.
A total of $ 16,500 of unpaid bonuses is  owed to each of these Women Footballers on their triumph over the Cameroon side, in addition to other bonuses from the 2016 Olympic Qualifiers.

On their return from the Tournament, these Champions have begun a 'sit-in' protest for their unpaid bonuses, Sources have disclosed that the ladies who chose to be un-named have decried that they will not leave the hotel until their bonuses are paid.

According to one of the ladies "we know that if we leave this hotel, we will never be paid this Money, it has happened in the past".- This is different from what they came to tell us when we went for the tournament.

I have had a similar experience with this kind of Situation before, and it is a cancer-worm eating into the final core of Nigeria as a people. We must arise to ensure that these evil acts do not go unpunished.
