President of Nigeria Football Federation, Ibrahim Musa Gusau said: We must commend, specially, the mental strength and fortitude of Peace Efih, who lost her mother two days ago but opted to remain in camp and help the team to win well today. Hers is an example of a super patriot who will give everything for the good of the motherland.
The loss of a parent is a calamity, a thing of sadness and sorrow. Many other persons would have cracked and packed bags to leave the camp to go and mourn, but Peace decided it was better to honour her mothers memory with a great performance that has taken the team closer to another appearance at the Women AFCON. She deserves our praise.
Efihs toughness and productivity earned the Falcons a 5-0 win in Abuja, making Tuesdays return leg in the island nation all but a mere formality for the nine-time champions.
