I heard someone saying that the Federal government should have used the money to develop the country I just laughed please let's change our mindset.
To we that's a big amount of money that the government are giving to our players that put the nation on the map but to them that isn't big. Most of them make more than that monthly because they're being paid weekly. BBN that's just a game show gives their winners more than that amount and other participants get something worth close to that amount too. The money isn't big but the government did put in some efforts in encouraging the girls to make us proud the next time they find themselves in similar situations. The reaction of people to this gift should tell you how people really are because irrespective of what you do, people will always complain therefore just do you always.
Why are people even complaining about the amount the President pledge to give the Super Falcons, ain't they worth more than that amount for making the country proud in that heroic game against Morocco women. The gift is just like a thank you bonus for making the country proud and it's not even as if they will be paid that amount weekly or monthly. The Super Falcons deserve many gifts because football is one of the things that many people in the country loves so much and we Nigerians are always happy when our team is performing awesomely.
