“The Executive Committee of the Nigeria Football Federation has asked members of the technical crew of the Super Falcons to step down with immediate effect,” the NFF said in a terse post on its official X handle on Monday evening.
The decision comes eight days after Nigeria were knocked out of the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) after losing 1-0 to rivals Cameroon in a quarter-final match on August 8, 2026.
The defeat saw the female national team lose automatic qualification for the 2027 Women’s World Cup in Brazil.
The Super Falcons also lost 2-1 to South Africa in the play-off.
