The Nigeria Football Federation has named Amina Daura as new Head of Women’s Football.
She replaces Ruth David, according to a statement signed by the head of NFF’s Communications Department, Ademola Olajire.
It said the appointment followed the recommendation of Phillips Consulting, a recruitment firm employed by the NFF to shortlist the best candidate for the position.
“Daura demonstrated a strong passion for the development of women’s football from grassroots to elite level. She was able to prove to the panel her capacity for stakeholder management and funding,” the statement said.
The NFF said a total of 11 candidates were interviewed for the position, including seven Nigerians.
The new coach has over 15 years experience in women football and last worked for Helping Hands Foundation for Child Education, an NGO.
Daura, who is also a UNICEF ambassador, is expected to oversee the development of women’s football across the nation, as well as provide technical support to Super Falcons’ Head Coach, Randy Waldrum.
