NFF lauds Carloha’s support for Nigerian sports as company hosts Super Falcons to celebrate WAFCON victory
Carloha Nigeria, the exclusive distributor and assembler of Chery vehicles in Nigeria, has hosted the Super Falcons as part of the celebrations of the team’s historic victory at the just concluded 2025 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON).
The ceremony was held at the Carloha’s showroom in Alapere, Lagos.
The Falcons recently claimed their 10th continental title with a thrilling 3–2 win over host nation Morocco to further cement their legacy as Africa’s most successful women’s football team.
The event, attended by players, fans, sports journalists, influencers, and industry stakeholders, was organized as a gesture of appreciation for the team’s achievements and support for the nation’s sports.
Speaking during the occasion, the President of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Alhaji Ibrahim Musa Gusau, commended Carloha for its strong commitment to the development of sports in Nigeria.
He described the company’s involvement as a model of corporate patriotism and emphasized the importance of investing in national teams.
Gusau expressed confidence that the partnership between the NFF, Carloha, and Chery would yield long-term positive impact.
Carloha Managing Director, Mr. Sola Adigun, welcomed the Falcons and highlighted the significance of the moment, noting that the victory inspired millions across the country.
He stated that the company’s collaboration with the NFF was built on shared values such as excellence, resilience, and national pride.
Adigun described the event as not just a celebration of football success, but a reinforcement of belief in collective ambition and possibility.
The celebratory gathering featured a red carpet reception, media interactions, and the presentation of Chery-branded souvenirs to the players.
The Super Falcons were also taken on a tour of the showroom, where they explored Chery’s vehicle lineup, including the Tiggo 9, Tiggo 8 Pro, Tiggo 4 Pro, and Arrizo 5. The players praised the vehicles for their design, innovation, and advanced technology.
The team’s captain, Rasheedat Ajibade, speaking on behalf of the players, expressed deep appreciation to Carloha for the recognition and support.
She noted that being celebrated by corporate partners adds significant meaning to their victory and sends a strong message about the growing value of women’s football in Nigeria.
As the official automotive sponsor of the NFF, Carloha continues to play a significant role in the promotion of sports and talent development in Nigeria.
The company’s contributions extend beyond sponsorship, with initiatives designed to empower communities and inspire future generations, according to a statement from the auto company.
Carloha also reaffirmed its commitment to customer satisfaction through its Carloha Care-6-6-7 programme, a comprehensive aftersales package that includes a six-year warranty covering major vehicle components, six years of free scheduled maintenance, and a seven-day repair promise with the provision of a courtesy vehicle if needed.
The company emphasized that this initiative was part of its broader vision to ensure reliability, convenience, and peace of mind for all Chery vehicle owners.
Part of the statement by the firm read, “Carloha Care 6-6-7 is our promise of worry-free ownership, built around the pillars of reliability, convenience, and customer-first service.
“Designed to offer complete peace of mind, this comprehensive package ensures that every Chery driver enjoys the same smooth driving experience as the day they first got behind the wheel.
“The Carloha Care 6-6-7 package also includes a 6-year warranty that covers your vehicle’s essential components, including the engine and transmission, providing long-term assurance and confidence.
“In addition, our 6-year free service offering means scheduled maintenance is taken care of at no extra cost, keeping your Chery in peak condition year after year.
“And should your vehicle need repairs, our 7-day repair promise guarantees swift action—or we’ll provide a courtesy vehicle to keep you moving without disruption.
Therefore, with Carloha Care in place, you can focus on the journey ahead—whether it’s a daily commute, family road trip, or corporate assignment—knowing your vehicle is in expert hands.”
The celebration, it stated, marked another milestone in Carloha’s strategic efforts to support national achievements and contribute meaningfully to Nigeria’s sporting and economic development.

Jetour Nigeria is taking its premium SUV battle to Abuja, with the seven-seater X90 Plus set to headline the Jetour Experience Abuja from September 22 to 24, as the automaker moves to capture a larger share of Nigeria’s fast-growing high-end family SUV market.
The three-day motoring showcase will give prospective buyers, families and auto enthusiasts in the Federal Capital Territory and neighbouring states an opportunity to experience the X90 Plus and other models in the Jetour range through test drives and hands-on demonstrations.
The Abuja showcase follows the success of the brand’s earlier Jetour Experience in Lagos, where strong customer interest, inquiries and sales momentum reportedly encouraged the company to take the initiative to the Federal Capital Territory.

Positioned as a full-sized family SUV, the X90 Plus is designed for executives and families seeking a combination of space, technology, performance and comfort without the price tag associated with some luxury SUVs.
The model is offered with 1.6-litre and 2.0-litre turbocharged engines paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. The powertrain produces up to 254 horsepower and 390Nm of torque.
Inside the cabin, the X90 Plus features a 12.3-inch LCD touchscreen infotainment system, panoramic sunroof, Sony premium audio system and wireless charging.
Its safety and driver-assistance features include a 360-degree panoramic camera, Forward Collision Warning, Lane Departure Warning and electronic stability systems.
Jetour’s growing profile in Nigeria has also earned the brand recognition from the Nigeria Auto Journalists Association (NAJA), which named it Fastest Growing Auto Brand, while it was also recognised as Auto Brand of the Year at the Nigeria Transport Lecture.
To support its expanding customer base, Jetour Nigeria, the sole authorised distributor, operates through seven accredited dealer partners across the country: Elizade Nigeria Limited, Mandilas Autos, R.T. Briscoe Motors, Germaine Auto Centre, Kojo Motors, Tab Autos Limited and New Era Auto Vehicle Services Limited.
The Abuja Experience is expected to provide Jetour with another platform to engage potential customers and reinforce its position in Nigeria’s increasingly competitive SUV market.
