I Will Add More Value To Super Falcons – Ikhana

The Head Coach of the senior national women football team, has pledged to add more value to the  team  Kadiri Ikhana .

Ikhana was appointed on March 28, 2012 by the Nigeria Football Association (NFA) to head the team’s coaching crew.

Speaking at his official unveiling ceremony recently, Ikhana said he would do his best to ensure that the team also known as the Super Falcons becomes better than what it used to be.

“I don’t have much to say now because I don’t want to talk much. However, I want my results to speak for me.

“I can for now only promise to add more value to the Super Falcons by God’s Grace,’’ he said.

The former coach of Kwara United Football Club of Ilorin further said he was confident he would meet the terms stated in his appointment’s contract papers.

The coach had been mandated to lead the team to qualification for the 2012 African Women Championship (AWC) and subsequently the FIFA Women’s World Cup of 2015

“I can assure that I can build a team that will qualify for the AWC later in the year and then the Women’s World Cup in 2015 as demanded by the contract,’’ Ikhana said.

Earlier in his speech at the unveiling ceremony, the NFA chairman, Aminu Maigari, had reiterated the association’s support for women football.

He said the unveiling ceremony itself was a practical demonstration of that as it was the first of its kind for a women’s team coach.

“NFA is not paying lip service to women’s football because this is the first unveiling for the women’s national team coach.
