Nigeria's Flamingos have arrived in Abuja following their successful outing at the 2026 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup, DAILY POST reports.

Akeem Busari's side defeated Japan 2-1 in the final of the competition at the Mohammed VI Football Complex, Pitch 3, Rabat last Saturday.

The players and their officials departed Rabat, Morocco in the wee hours of Monday aboard a Royal Air Maroc flight which arrived at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja by 5:50 am local time.

The Flamingos will later in the day embark on a road show around major streets of Abuja to celebrate with the fans.

Meanwhile, the official reception of the world champions will be held at a later date due to the current busy schedule of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Tinubu is currently on a campaign trail ahead of next year's presidential election.
