Nigeria was absent from the first-ever Caf women's administrator course for English-speaking countries that commenced on Tuesday in Cairo.
Goal understands the course, which has participants from a total of 27 African countries, is a two-day event until November 28.
The event, which is organised by the Caf women's department in partnership with Uefa and Fifa, is in the second phase, with 21 French-speaking nations taking part in the first phase a week ago.
It is the third maiden refresher programme for women to be held this November following a maiden women's instructor of instructors' course earlier in the month.
The course will serve as a platform for women's administrators to share experiences at their various bases, create a partnership and also stay connected with each other after the event.
However, Caf sources revealed to us, Nigeria did not express a participation interest let alone present an administrative representative for the course.
Happening in Cairo!
