BUA Group Abdul Samad Rabiu

Abdul Samad Rabiu, chairman of BUA Group, has pledged a $500,000 reward to the Super Eagles if they win their semi-final clash with Morocco at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.

Rabiu made the commitment in a post on X following Nigeria’s 2-0 victory over Algeria in Saturday’s quarter-final.

The Super Eagles booked their place in the last four, their 16th AFCON semi-final appearance, thanks to goals from Victor Osimhen and Akor Adams at the Grand Stade de Marrakech.

In addition to the victory bonus, Rabiu stated that every goal scored in the semi-final will earn an extra $50,000 for the team.

He further noted that “should you go on to win the final, I further pledge USD $1,000,000, plus USD $100,000 for each goal scored in the final”

“Congratulations to our Super Eagles players on a brilliant victory against Algeria! You have lifted the spirit of the nation, and we proudly cheer you on as you prepare for the semi-finals,” Rabiu writes.

Nigeria takes on hosts Morocco on Wednesday at 9 pm Nigerian time for a spot in the final.
