VON STATEMENT ON FALSE WAFCON REPORT!

Dear Esteemed Nigerians and Friends of Voice of Nigeria,

On behalf of the management and staff of the Voice of Nigeria (VON), I extend my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who reached out with concern, support, and constructive feedback following the regrettable publication on our website on the night of Saturday, 26th July 2025, regarding the WAFCON 2025 Final between Nigeria and Morocco.

The erroneous report, which prematurely and falsely announced a Nigerian loss before the conclusion of the match, was both inaccurate and deeply unfortunate. Voice of Nigeria aligns with this historic moment, as our Super Falcons mounted a courageous comeback to defeat hosts Morocco 3–2, securing a record-extending tenth WAFCON title and affirming their place at the pinnacle of African women’s football.

We sincerely apologize for the misinformation and the confusion it caused. The integrity of our journalism is paramount, and we take this incident seriously. While initial reviews pointed to an internal lapse, we are also investigating the possibility of a security breach or identity theft through hacking, which may have contributed to this disturbing development. As a public institution, we cannot rule out such cyber threats and are taking appropriate steps to enhance the security of our digital platforms.

It is important to clarify that while internal editorial processes are being reviewed and strengthened, we are not placing sole responsibility on any individual staff member, including the sports reporter initially associated with the story. Rather, this episode underscores the need for comprehensive institutional safeguards to prevent such occurrences in the future.

As part of our ongoing internal reforms, we have introduced key editorial structures, including an Investigative Desk, a Fact-Checking Unit, and a Monitoring and Evaluation Team. We have also undertaken strategic staff redeployments to enhance accountability, build resilience, and boost editorial efficiency across our platforms.

These reforms reflect our broader commitment to repositioning VON as a more responsive, transparent, and globally respected media institution. At Voice of Nigeria, we embrace the responsibility that comes with being Nigeria’s official international broadcaster. We remain steadfast in our dedication to our three pillars: People, Platform, and Partnership.

We are deeply thankful for your engagement. Your voices remind us that accountability is not a burden—it is a cornerstone of public service.

Once again, thank you for standing with us not just in times of national celebration, but also when we are called to reflect, correct, and improve.

Warm regards,
Mallam Jibrin Baba Ndace, mnipr
Director General/CEO
Voice of Nigeria (VON)

“Animals are born who they are, accept it, and that is that. They live with greater peace than people do.”

```Life is full of lessons, and mistakes are inevitable. However, some mistakes can have lasting consequences. It's crucial to approach life with caution and wisdom. Think before you act, and seek guidance from a higher power. Don't let emotions dictate your decisions. Take time to reflect, and consider the potential outcomes. Your choices can shape your destiny. Be mindful of your actions, relationships, and opportunities. A moment of recklessness can lead to a lifetime of regret. Stay vigilant, stay wise, and stay on the right path.```

```May you never again get attached to anyone who isn't for you. May you find a love that always makes you laugh, never takes you for granted, and gives you unquestionable loyaly. Someone who adores your childlike playfulness and your old soul - a love you never have to heal from.```

```Embrace Your Next Chapter
The past is a place of reference, not a place of residence. It holds lessons and cherished memories, shaping who you are. Yet, dwelling there keeps you from the present and its exciting possibilities. To truly move forward, let go of what was. Release old narratives and past disappointments. Embrace what is right now—the current moment, with all its potential for new beginnings and fresh perspectives. Most importantly, trust in what will be. Have faith in your resilience and capacity for growth. Every ending is just a new beginning; your next chapter, filled with unwritten stories, is waiting for you to turn the page.```

```True love and unwavering loyalty are incredibly rare gems, seldom found in their purest form. Discovering a bond of genuine affection and steadfast devotion is like unearthing a hidden treasure. When you're fortunate enough to find such a profound connection, it's crucial to recognize its immense value. It's about safeguarding something deeply significant. It offers a sanctuary of trust and support, a foundation for the future. Therefore, once this rare combination enters your life, nurture and protect it with the utmost care.```

```Embracing Forward Motion
Moving forward means more than just leaving the past behind; it's about actively shaping a better future. It demands a growth mindset and willingness to adapt.
Learn from every experience, good or bad, letting lessons refine you instead of setbacks define you. Embrace change; clinging to old ways blinds you to new opportunities.
Be open to new perspectives, ideas, and possibilities. Moving forward is an act of courage—stepping out of your comfort zone, taking calculated risks, and trusting your ability to navigate challenges. Keep your vision clear, stay resilient, and believe in your own evolution.```

```An inability to change one's mind is a significant obstacle to moving forward. Individuals who stubbornly cling to existing beliefs, even with new information, will inevitably stagnate.
True growth requires a willingness to re-evaluate and adapt. Resisting fresh perspectives acts as an anchor, preventing forward movement. Without the capacity for self-correction, one is destined to repeat errors. In a world constantly evolving, those unwilling to adjust are simply falling behind.```

This role empowers you to be an active, decisive force.
You're not a passive recipient; you're the architect of your destiny. Embrace the freedom to create your own framework for fulfillment. Ultimately, you govern your personal enterprise, on your terms.```

```Life rarely unfolds according to our meticulously crafted plans. No matter how detailed our blueprints may be, the path we ultimately tread often veers in unexpected directions. There's a certain destiny at play, a preordained course that subtly guides us, shaping our experiences and steering us toward a future we may not have envisioned. It's about accepting the twists and turns, embracing the detours, and trusting that everything happens for a reason, leading us to where we are meant to be.```

```The very things that seem to trip us up can also be the things that propel us forward. It all depends on how we choose to perceive them. Obstacles aren't meant to halt our progress; they're opportunities for growth. Life's most captivating moments arise from the challenges we face, and it's through overcoming these hurdles that we truly find purpose. Ultimately, you have the power to shape your own destiny. You are the architect of your own future. The most valuable aspects of life are felt, not seen.```
