A female friend was lamenting to me that the AWC champions and Super Falcons of Nigeria were picked up from the airport in a trailer as shown on channels news. Dont tell me this is true. Is it?
I will be gutted if that was the case!! 

wow, I hope someone confirms dat soon, although I doubt it

Is this for real?

Oops

wow. . .Shameful!!
[size=20pt]SHAMEFUL!!!!![/size]

Show of shame. If it was one of them looters, they would use the best bandwagon

Another Failure

Somewhere some local politician is cruising around in his plush Range Rover with a/c blowing,full police escort, while he has never had a job in his lifetime, feeding fat off our money,while the real heroes are eating gala in the back of a dirty rusted out,retired jalopy of a truck.

The French national team cruised around Paris in the same trailer after they won the world cup in 1998.

Seun:

Why are the pics so small and where did you get them from? Source please?
If you actually took the picture you should have a bigger version. if not, source?

Satisfied now.

This is so not funny

smh,

I just had to dig out some quotes after reading the article:

African champions, the Super Falcons of Nigeria returned to a tumultuous welcome Monday afternoon, only to be conveyed in a rickety old truck that could best be used in conveying cows.




A Brila fm reporter, Tony Bekederemo was forced to jump down from the truck. There was no arrangement for a formal press chat with the players or officials.

This is bad. sooooo bad!

someone ought to be sacked.

Why is the Nigerian police still carrying rifles?. The thing is big enough to strain their arm.

quite different.

i understand the rationale behind picking them up in a large open vehicle, so they could enjoy the cheers of fans and all,

but what i dont get is how the eff they felt that old blue drum was the one.

in my Abacha accent :

Whoeba f[/i]icked out Zhis [i]b[/i]ehicle is imme[i]z[/i]iately relie[i]b[/i]ed o[i]p his duties, and his entaaya cabinet DISSOLBED!

Zero standards, that's why. This would be in Abuja. Correct?

lmao

can't they do anything right in that country?

pardon me people. i got to laugh. this should be my avi.

the neglect of female soccer in nigeria is sad and funny at the same time.

he for slide down the trailer now 

Erm. . .big deal? It's obviously clean, well prepared for the occasion, so what's the fuss? They are even trying for being so intelligent as to improvise. How much money is the female team worth anyway? Let us be thankful on their behalf that they even got that much attention.

Why can't they pick the girls up in an open trailer like this one.

well prepared for the occasion?  the terms improvise and well prepared do not belong together. 

it's not a must they hold a parade, a handshake ceremony and dinner would have been more befitting.

quite different.

How?

very dull sets of people

This is really disgusting. but then this is Nigeria you can expect anything, just anything. because you can equally get away with anything. Otherwise sanity would have prevailed on those responsible for this that it's improper but who cares,
