The Federal Government has said that the Super Eagles’ match bonuses at the ongoing 2025 Africa Cup of Nations have cleared the necessary regulatory stages
According to a statement issued on Thursday, the Minister of State for Finance, Doris Uzoka-Anite, said the payments would be reflected in the players’ domiciliary accounts “starting today or tomorrow”.
Super Eagles on Wednesday threatened to boycott travel to the host city of their quarter-final match at the AFCON over unpaid allowances.
Nigeria will face Algeria in the quarter-final on Saturday in Marrakesh, a city about five hours away from their current base. The team is scheduled to travel from Fez to Marrakesh on Thursday.
However, the players and officials were determined to miss the trip unless the outstanding allowances were paid. The Eagles are yet to receive bonuses for all four matches played at the tournament.
