This latest achievement further solidifies Nigeria’s position as a dominant force in African women’s football.

Arimoro claims that during the confrontation, his tyres were deflated, he was surrounded by multiple individuals, and he sustained injuries including a fractured jaw, bite marks, and bruises.
