As the @NGSuperEagles take on #Burundi today, people like @chaplinez70 have been asking me what is the #AFCON2019 budget for the team? I was curious too. Well, after speaking to @thenff’s @ShehuDikko this morning, I now have some answers to give you & @Nigeria...
If the @NGSuperEagles get to the final of #AFCON2019, total @AsoRock expenditure on the team will be about $8.5m.
Here are what the @NGSuperEagles players will get as match bonuses: Group stage wins: $10k; Round of 16: $12.5k; QF: $15k; SF: $17.5k. And if they win the final: $20k. So, each player would earn $95,000 for winning #AFCON2019.
Gernot Rohr, the head coach of the @NGSuperEagles, will earn double what his players get, which means he will get $190,000 for winning the #AFCON2019.
.@IAmapakabo, who assists Gernot Rohr, will earn 75% of what his boss gets. This applies to goalkeeper coach Alloy Agu as well. The media officer, @Toyin_Ibitoye, and other backroom staff at his level will earn 75% of what the @NGSuperEagles players receive.
When it comes to the @NGSuper_Falcons, and their #FIFAWWC campaign, @AsoRock has a $3.2m budget for them. The players are also entitled to a 30% share of @thenff’s WWC revenue that comes from @FIFAcom. The players earned $4k each for beating South Korea.
If the @NGSuper_Falcons best @DFB_Team in their ‘Round of 16’ #FIFAWWC game today, they will earn $6,000 per player.
As at today, @AsoRock has not paid out the cash for the @NGSuperEagles’s #AFCON2019 campaign. They haven’t paid anything for the @NGSuper_Falcons #FIFAWWC campaign either...
But @thenff’s 2nd VP, @ShehuDikko, tells me he hopes they will receive the money by Tuesday. I understand that @MBuhari has to sign off on the payment of the cash, even though he approved the budgets for both teams a couple of weeks ago.
.@ShehuDikko: “@AsoRock makes this payment out of what is called a ‘service vote’. They have to find under which sub-head our payment can be made, without breaking the law. Once this is done and @MBuhari signs off on it, the money is paid out.”
