The Federal Government on Wednesday redeemed its pledge of a housing unit to former Super Eagles coach, Clemence Westerhof, 28 years after winning the 1994 Africa Cup of Nations.

“This is a testimony of government’s resolve to ensure that Nigerians, irrespective of time, who made sacrifices to project the good image of the country, are recognised and encouraged to keep working for the corporate benefits of all.”

According to a statement signed by the ministry’s spokesperson, Mrs Blessing Adams-Lere, the minister explained that the government’s pledge to the 1994 Eagles remained unredeemed until the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari approved that all members of the team be handed over their houses. He added that other beneficiaries were given the liberty to choose their allocated homes in respective states of their choice in the National Housing Programme estates across the country.

The PUNCH reports that beneficiaries who have collected their keys and title documents to their homes include Alloy Agu, Uche Okafor, Emmanuel Amuneke, Thompson Oliha, Peter Rufai, Efan Ekoku, Isaac Semitoje, Austin Eguavoen, Col. A. Asielu and Late Stephen Keshi amongst others. In his response, Westerhof, represented by Mrs. Charity Nankyer Biwet, thanked Buhari for fulfilling the housing pledge made to the 1994 Eagles and the coach, saying that it was a promise kept.All rights reserved.
