Nigeria’s women’s national football team, the “Super Falcons,” the only African team to have participated in all FIFA Women’s World Cup tournaments since 1991, could possibly boycott their opening fixture against Canada at the 2023 edition of the global tournament, in protest over unpaid bonuses – a development happening amid increased demands for fair pay by female players. For VOA, reporter Timothy Obiezu produced this report from Nigeria’s capital, Abuja.
