Bayelsa Queens Win Historic Sixth NWFL Title – C2E Sports Academy Alumna Shines
Franklin Nnaemeka – May 18, 2025 – Ikenne, Ogun State
On a rain-kissed afternoon at the Remo Stars Stadium, Bayelsa Queens wrote yet another golden chapter in their history, clinching a record-extending sixth Nigeria Women Football League Premiership title in style.
The Prosperity Girls capped an unforgettable 2024/2025 campaign with a ruthless 4-1 dismantling of Naija Ratels in the final round of the Super Six playoffs, a result that sealed their dominance in what many have called the most competitive NWFL Super Six in history.
Among the standout performers was Amblessed Ogbonnaya, a proud graduate of C2E Sports Academy, whose defensive brilliance and playmaking vision proved invaluable. The towering defender not only shut down multiple Naija Ratels’ attacking forays with impeccable timing and positional awareness but also turned defence into attack with a series of incisive, game-changing passes that carved open the opposition midfield.
Her calmness under pressure and ability to read the game ensured Bayelsa’s backline remained unshaken even during Naija Ratels’ brief spells of pressure. One particular moment a perfectly weighted diagonal ball that initiated the move for Bayelsa’s third goal summed up her class and influence on the pitch.
As the final whistle blew, the stadium erupted into jubilant celebrations. Bayelsa Queens had not only conquered Nigeria once again but also reminded the football world of the depth of talent and discipline within their ranks.
For Amblessed, this triumph is more than a medal it’s a testament to years of hard work, discipline, and C2E Sports Academy’s commitment to nurturing players who excel on the biggest stages.
The Prosperity Girls have set the bar higher, and with players like Amblessed Ogbonnaya anchoring the team, the future of Bayelsa Queens and Nigerian women’s football looks brighter than ever.
