Nasarawa State Governor Abdullahi Sule has rewarded the players of Nasarawa Amazons with cash gifts, a new coaster bus, and other incentives following their victory in the 2026 Women’s President Federation Cup.

At a reception held at the Government House in Lafia on Friday, Governor Sule praised the team for bringing honour to the state after their 6-5 penalty-shootout win over Heartland Queens in the final. He announced a 2026 model 38 seater coaster bus for the club, alongside a series of cash donations to players and officials.

Individual awards followed too. Federation Cup Most Valuable Player Hembafan Ayatsea and Best Goalkeeper Udoka Unachukwu each received $1,000, while the remaining 34 registered players on the squad were given $500 each.

On top of the individual awards, the state government approved a broader package for the club: N25 million for the 36 registered players, N15 million for management and the technical crew, and N5 million for the supporters’ club. The governor also announced immediate allocation of a hostel for the players and officials, and an official vehicle for head coach Christopher Danjuma.

Nasarawa United, the state’s men’s club, also benefited from the governor’s generosity on the same occasion, receiving a new 38 seater bus and N10 million after finishing sixth in the 2025/26 NPFL season and reaching the semi-finals of the President Federation Cup. The club’s feeder team and the Nasarawa State Football Association each received N10 million, while Nasarawa United’s media director, Eche Amos, was honoured with $500 for his contribution to sports journalism in the state.

Governor Sule said the Amazons had made the people of Nasarawa proud, and described sport as a powerful force for unity regardless of tribe or religion.
