We started the journey of developing women football in Nigeria, together in 1993 at the National Stadium, Lagos, with the Female Football Interest Group. Its delightful to see this dream grow to what it is today with Nigeria running the best women's league football in Africa, winning 11 titles out of the 13 editions of the CAF African Women Nations Cup and producing three players that won the CAF Woman Footballer of the Year nine times, hundreds of players plying their trade in Europe and other parts of the world and the Under-20 national women's soccer team becoming the third best in the world. It's most painful that despite all these we have remained in the background not given due recognition by our dear country, but we take consolation and appreciation in the recognition given you by Aisha Falode, who made you a board member of the Nigeria Women Football League and also me, the Spokesperson of the NWFL. Together we revelled in this and hoped for the better when you sadly departed this world leaving us all to continue the battle. You lived a fulfilled life and I will never forget your sincerity, love, kindness and drive to always carry me along in everything beneficial in women's football.Good night my Life President of the Female Football Interest Group. Rest in peace until we meet to part no more. It's me Dapo Sotuminu, your Worldwide Secretary General, FFIG.
