The Federal Ministry of Housing and Urban Development has fulfilled its promise to provide houses to the 1994 Super Eagles team that won the Africa Cup of Nations in Tunisia. 


The ministry's Director of Public Building and Housing Development, Pemi Temitope, handed over allocation letters to team members, symbolically presenting one to former striker Efan Ekoku.


The housing units were distributed across various states in Nigeria, with some team members receiving their houses in their respective states and others in Abuja, while the government reiterated its commitment to honoring promises made to sporting heroes, rewarding them for their patriotic service.


Ekoku, who was represented by his niece, Lisa Nwagbogun, expressed gratitude to the Federal Government and the Ministry of Housing for fulfilling the long-standing pledge which was initially made in 1994, and approved in 2022 by former President Muhammadu Buhari.
