Shuku, shuku shuku, Shaka Shaka, shukujaunlaun, shukudoe, shakashuku congratulations and Heaven bless your new achievement. Akor Adams I hope you are learning from Shuku.
Fantastic player!Shukurat is the bomb!She is good enough to be starting games for the super falcons.
Her bench role days are over,should Madugu chose merit over seniority or past form,Shukurat should be the first on the list.
Madugu’s selection must be merit-based to get the most out of our super falcons,as we prepare to defend our title,as well qualify to participate in the forthcoming FIFA world cup.
