Super Falcons captain, Rasheedat Ajibade, on Saturday, shared her journey from humble beginnings to continental success in a testimony at the Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries’ Prayer City, Ogun State.

 

Ajibade, who led Nigeria to its 10th Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) title in Morocco, attended the August edition of the church’s monthly ‘Power Must Change Hands’ programme, reports The PUNCH.

 

Speaking to the congregation, the Atletico Madrid forward revealed that she once hawked olive oil, kunu, and zobo drinks within the church premises before rising to fame as a professional footballer.

 

She said in part, “Whenever things are tough at my club or with the national team, I pray.

 

“I do my part through hard work but never forget to seek God’s help.”

 

She added, “I was once one of those young girls out there hawking olive oil, kunu, and zobo drinks in most of the deliverance programmes, but today, I give glory to God.

 

“Please, don’t give up, keep praying, keep fasting, keep working and keep believing.”
