Super Falcons captain Rasheedat Ajibade has shared her inspiring journey from humble beginnings to becoming a continental football star.
She revealed how she once sold Olive oil and local drinks like Kunu and Zobo at church grounds before rising to football prominence.
Ajibade gave the testimony on Saturday, August 2, at Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries’ (MFM) Prayer City in Ogun State.
Now a forward for Atletico Madrid and captain of Nigeria’s national women’s team, Ajibade led the Super Falcons to their 10th Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) title in Morocco. Speaking candidly, she credited her journey to both spiritual discipline and perseverance.
“Whenever things are tough at my club or with the national team, I pray. I do my part through hard work, but I never forget to seek God’s help,” she said.
Reflecting on her early days, she added, “I was one of those young girls hawking Olive oil, Kunu, and Zobo during deliverance programmes. But today, I give all the glory to God. Please, don’t give up—keep praying, keep fasting, keep working, and keep believing.”
Ajibade was named Player of the Tournament at WAFCON and earned three Woman of the Match awards. Although she scored just once, her impact throughout the competition was vital to Nigeria’s success.
