Oguwike Nwachuku, Chief Press Secretary and Media Adviser to the Governor, said in a release on Sunday that Governor Uzodinma announced a N5 million donation for each of the six Super Falcons players from Imo State who participated in the Africa Women Championship in Morocco when they paid him a courtesy call at the Government House Owerri.
The beneficiary of the Government’s largess include: Desire Okparanozie, Goalkeeper Chiamaka Nnadozie, Vivian Ikechukwu, Goalkeeper Tochukwu Oluehi, Ohale Osinachi and America born Michelle Alozie.
The Governor said he was particularly touched by the display of football artistry exhibited by the women folk against their Morrocan competitors, noting that the six ladies not only did Nigeria proud but Imo State where they hail from.
He congratulated the Super Falcons for also qualifying for the Women World cup holding in Australia and New Zealand from July 20 till August, 20, 2023.
