Nigerian Billionaire businessman Aliko Dangote says he has long wanted to give the Super Eagles the million dollar promise he made when they won the 2013 African Cup of Nations last year in South Africa.
He was reacting to Vincent Enyeama’s plea that most of the promises made to the team has not been fulfilled.
Enyeama had said:”We understand the busy schedule of Alhaji Dangote, we are just asking his aides to help remind him of the promise to us.
It’s just a reminder to patriots who are very busy and may not have been prompted after they made their pledges, because the players are determined to bring more honours to fatherland at the forthcoming World Cup”
Dangote responded by saying that he was waiting for someone from the team or the NFF to contact him with bank account information for the various team members.
Dangote said:”We’ve been waiting for Nigerian officials to collect the money but nobody has written to us.
We will write to them, asking for the account numbers of the players, then we’ll make the transfer immediately.”
