The Federal Government on Tuesday fulfilled its promise to former Super Eagles coach, Bonfrere Jo,  handing him the keys to a three-bedroom apartment  in Gwagwalada, Abuja.


The Dutchman was promised  a house after  guiding the national U23 team to  win the men’s football event at  the  Atlanta  ’96 Olympic Games.

Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola,  who handed  Bonfrere  the  keys  during a brief ceremony  in Abuja,  said the reward would  inspire the Eagles at the 2018 World Cup competition in Russia.

The 71-year-old  thanked the Federal Government and stated that the gesture would encourage sportsmen and women to work hard, knowing that their achievements would  not go unrecognized
