Chairman of the League Management Company (LMC), Shehu Dikko, presented a cash gift of $10,000 to the victorious Super Eagles on behalf of the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL).

LMC are the organisers of the NPFL from which the 23 players were selected to represent Nigeria in the ongoing African Nations Championship (CHAN) in Rwanda.

Dikko, who also is the Second Vice President of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), made the cash presentation to the team at a dinner organised by the Nigerian high commission in Rwanda.

“The LMC, club owners and all the stakeholders of the league appreciated your excellent display tonight, we are proud of the team.

You guys have been good ambassadors of the league and I have been mandated to present this cash as reward for your hard work,” Dikko said.

Super Eagles will face Tunisia on Friday, while Guinea and Niger Republic will also play in continuation of the Group C contest to reach the next round of the tournament.
