Tinubu’s upcoming presence at the final match in Abidjan on Sunday is set to create a historic moment for Nigerian football enthusiasts.
The announcement by Dr. Patrice Motsepe underscores the significance of this occasion in Nigerian sports history.
It is worth noting that in 2013, during Nigeria’s triumph in Johannesburg, South Africa, the delegation was led by the Senate President, David Mark.
However, the unique historical dimension added by President Tinubu’s planned attendance emphasizes the importance of this AFCON final in the nation’s leadership.
Vice President Kashim Shettima conveyed President Tinubu’s intention to attend, further underlining the significance of this occasion.
As anticipation builds, CAF President notes that football fans in the two nations at large eagerly await this groundbreaking moment on the grand state of African football.
