Coach of Nigeria’s senior women national team, Edwin Okon, has claimed that he is yet to receive his salaries for 25 months.
Okon led the team to their 7th African Women Championship in Namibia on Saturday evening, after the Falcons beat Cameroon 2-0.
The
tactician, who is also the head of Rivers Angels of Port Harcourt,
bemoaned the bad treatment the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) and
revealed he has not been given any monies such the tournament ended.
“Since
August 2012 when I led the Falconets to the World Cup where we came
fourth, up till today, I’m yet to get a dime as salary from the NFF,” he
told the media.
“Every time I go to the office to complain, they will say there is no money.
“At
a time I learned that the Federal Government gave the federation some
money to pay [former men's senior team coach Stephen] Keshi and other
national team coaches, but up till today my story is still the same.”
