Rasheedat Ajibade, the captain of the Super Falcons, Nigeria’s women’s football team, has shared her remarkable journey from humble beginnings to continental success in a powerful testimony at the Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries’ Prayer City in 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, where she inspired the congregation with her story of perseverance and faith.
Ajibade revealed that she once hawked olive oil, kunu, and zobo drinks within the church premises before rising to fame as a professional footballer. In her testimony, she encouraged the congregation not to give up on their dreams, saying, “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.” Ajibade’s journey is a testament to the power of hard work, determination, and faith.
The Super Falcons captain also emphasized the importance of seeking God’s help in times of challenge. She said, “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.” Ajibade’s commitment to her faith and her craft has clearly paid off, as she has become one of the most successful footballers in Nigeria.
Ajibade’s testimony is an inspiration to young footballers and anyone chasing their dreams. Her story shows that with perseverance, hard work, and faith, anyone can overcome obstacles and achieve success. The Super Falcons’ recent victory in the WAFCON tournament is a testament to the team’s dedication and skill, and Ajibade’s leadership has been instrumental in their success.
The Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries’ ‘Power Must Change Hands’ programme is a platform for people to share their testimonies and inspire others. Ajibade’s testimony is a powerful reminder that with God on our side, we can overcome any challenge and achieve greatness. Her story will undoubtedly inspire many young people to pursue their dreams, whether in football or other areas of life.
