According to the minister, a proposal has been sent to Mr.
President to receive the team at FEC meeting on Wednesday, noting that he is quite
sure Mr. President will be looking forward to meet the Falcons on their return,
as he praised the girls for doing Nigeria proud in Namibia.
"I know it is not just going to be a presidential hand
shake alone because he likes to appreciate those who do the country proud in
any sector of national endeavour. Just get the job done and leave the rest,"
the minister stated.
The team who arrived Lagos from Windhoek on Monday morning, will leave for Abuja on Tuesday where they will be hosted by the National Sports Commission (NSC) before the team meets with President Jonathan on Wednesday.
