Nigerians from all across the country joined forces irrespective of religion, tribe and political affiliation to show their support for the Super Falcons.
The Falcons are on the 11th day of their protest over unpaid allowances and bonuses due to them after winning the just concluded African Women Cup of Nations in Cameroon.
The ladies stormed the National Assembly and Presidential Villa on Wednesday to further put forward their case to the government.
And the eight-time African champions were not alone as they received the backing of many Nigerians who used the hashtag #PayFalcons to show solidarity with the team.
