The Nigeria Rugby League has announced the appointment of Bolu Fagborun as the head coach for the women’s national team as they prepare for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Kenya.
Bolu Fagborun brings a wealth of experience and a proven track record of success to his new role. He previously served as the head coach for the national men’s team during the MEA Championship 2022 in Ghana.
