I watched the English female national team that recently won the European championship parading in the streets of London in an open bus. The NFF also added a parade of the Super Falcons and the trophy in the streets of Abuja. Current report is that it was cancelled due to heavy rain.

I might be wrong but I was wondering if the government couldn't improvise any means of doing the parade. Nigerians would have even appreciated a parade in a closed bus.

Although no one can control the weather, I was expecting that they would improvise. Even when they don't do it the day that was assigned because of rain, what happened to the next day. To them, as far as they have given them cash gifts and houses, that's enough.
I could be wrong but I've not heard where there was a parade done by the Nigerian women when they win trophies, I don't even know if the men do it too.

Parade? Their is no time in our history that we have done something like that if am not mistaken, though it's not a bad idea entirely but I don't sees it as part of our culture, so it's not that significant to us, unlike the Europeans that it's the part of the norms if they win something huge.
Then as for the rest of other African nations, have they done anything like parade before?
I haven't heard of it before honestly, so I don't think it's that important to us, what I find very important is for our football federation and those people that made promises to this ladies, let them fullfil all their promise because they are the only ones giving us joy of recent, unlike our super eagles team that has being disappointing us on a steady basis.
