The Adamawa State Government has honoured Super Falcons coach Justine Madugu for leading the national women’s football team to its 10th title at the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON).
Madugu, an indigene of Numan Local Government Area of Adamawa State, received a three-bedroom bungalow and a cash reward of N50 million.
Gov. Ahmadu Fintiri made this known during a ceremony held to honour the victorious gaffer at the Government House in Yola on Friday.
Fintiri praised Madugu’s leadership and technical expertise, describing the victory as a proud moment for both the state and the country.
“It is a proud moment for us in Adamawa that one of our own has led Nigeria to victory on the continental stage.
“His technical intelligence and focus have brought honor not just to Nigeria but to Adamawa State as well,” Fintiri said.
