When it comes to the issue of welfare packages, billions of naira will be spent on men but when it comes to females, its peanuts and that generates noise. Personally to me, I don’t like that idea because football is football no matter who plays it. If it is one global sports body (FIFA) that handles both female and male football tournaments, why give preference to men.
