Falcons storm National Assembly over unpaid allowances

Members of the Super Falcons that won  the 10th African Women championship in Cameroon.on Wednesday morning protested the non payment of their allowances at the National Assembly.
The ladies stormed the National Assembly complex carrying placards that read – “We are your children, pity us,”  “Let us respect women,” and “Female football deserves respect.”
The team had been held up in a hotel in Abuja, few days after returning to the country with the AWC trophy.
The placard-carrying players said their mission was to let President Muhammadu Buhari see for himself what they were going through.
“We heard that President Buhari is coming to present the budget today and that is why we came here.“As a father, we believe that if he sees us, he will ask questions,” one of the players who pleaded not to be named told The Nation.

  •   Our correspondents gathered that some of the foreign – based players had returned to their bases but the few remaining players opted to protest what they described as injustice.
    Meanwhile,  all the  three entry gates  to the National Assembly have been shut by security operatives.
    Consequently, legislative aides  journalists,  maintenance crews and visitors to the complex have been locked out.
    Workers, aides and journalists were seen complaining about the security arrangement described as the most disorganized in the last three years.
