Dangote said he will give $50,000 per goal, while Otedola pledged the sum of $25,000 for each goal scored by the Eagles from the semi finals stage.
Hosea Wells Okunbo, a businessman, also promised $20,000 per player, while Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Lagos state governor, rewarded the team with $5,000 per player.
The Super Eagles had defeated Bafana Bafana of South Africa 2-1 to set up a semi final clash against either Algeria or Cote D’Ivoire, who were playing 1-1 in their quarter final game on Wednesday as at the time of filing this report.
