Oshoala Disagrees With Oparanozie On Equal Pay Campaign.
Nigeria Super falcons assistant captain Asisat Oshoala does not believe demanding for equal pay is a top priority for women’s national teams in Africa. Oshoala feels women’s football in Africa currently have more fundamental problems to be resolved than equal pay.
“It is a good thing that this demand caught FIFA’s attention,” the Nigeria forward told the Punch.
“But in Africa, we have other pressing issues to deal with in our football. We need to deal with our structures, facilities, and loads of issues before talking about equal pay.
“I prefer we rather focus on problems affecting female football in Africa first,” she concluded.
The team captain Desire Oparanozie had made the demand to be paid the same as their men counterparts in her statement at the recent Ladies in Sports Conference in Lagos.
It happens that the captain and her assistant shares different opinions on equal pay.
