The Nigeria Football Federation’s Executive Committee on Thursday accepted the Technical and Development Sub-Committee’s recommendation that Coach Augustine Eguavoen, the Federation’s Technical Director, remain Head Coach of the Super Eagles and guide the team in their 2025 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying matches against Libya the following month.
In Matchdays 1 and 2 earlier this month, the 58-year-old, temporarily in charge of the team he had captained three times before, guided the three-time African champions to a 3-0 victory against Benin Republic and a scoreless draw with Rwanda.
Eguavoen and the current technical crew that also includes Fidelis Ilechukwu, Daniel Ogunmodede, Olatunji Baruwa and Tomaz Zorec will also take charge of the Super Eagles B team for the qualifying campaign for next year’s African Nations Championship, otherwise known as CHAN.
With the departure of Mr. Randy Waldrum, the Executive Committee also approved the recommendation of the Technical and Development Sub-Committee for Coach Justin Madugu to lead the remaining technical crew and take charge of the Senior Women National Team, Super Falcons, pending the appointment of a substantive Head Coach.
The Super Falcons’ next big engagement is the Women Africa Cup of Nations finals, taking place in Morocco in the summer of next year.
