Former coach of Nigeria’s women national team and Rivers
Angels coach Edwin Okon has stated that Africa should have earned
more than a slot addition to the current three slots following the
expansion of the FIFA women’s world cup from 24 to 32 participating
nations to the Africa’s total to 4. Okon speaking in
a chat with www.brila.net welcomed
the idea of the expansion of the FIFA women’s world cup and feels
it’s a testament to the growth of the women game and said Africa
needs to do more in terms of the women’s game to be well reckoned
with by FIFA in the allocation of slots and global recognition.

idea no doubt but we need to do more, Africa only one slot at that
level, they should give us more than one slot and that’s why we
need to develop our Football to take the game to the next level
because they still see us like we are still backward.”
