Mission X: Super Falcons to parade WAFCON trophy in an open-roof bus on Monday

The Super Falcons will showcase the Women Africa Cup of Nations trophy in Abuja on Monday via an open-roof bus parade, offering residents a chance to see the WAFCON trophy.

The 10-time African champions will parade the trophy through populated areas in an open-roof bus en route to the Presidential Villa from Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport.

The team is expected to land in Abuja by noon on Monday.

The Super Falcons on landing in Nigeria's Federal Capital City will be hosted by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the Presidential Villa.

NFF General Secretary, Dr. Mohammed Sanusi, said on Sunday that all plans have been put in place for the smooth trophy parade in Abuja.

“We are making arrangements to have a trophy parade with the players and their coaches in an open-roof bus, and plying through Airport Road, Berger junction, Maitama and Wuse Market areas to the Presidential Villa. This will afford a good number of people in those areas to have a rare sight of the Women AFCON trophy,” He said on Sunday.

The Super Falcons secured their record-extending 10th WAFCON title, overcoming hosts Morocco 3-2 in a comeback victory at Rabat’s Stade Olympique on Saturday.
