ABUJA Cheap Boston Celtics Hats , Oct. 29 (Xinhua) -- Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan on Wednesday received the trophy won by the victorious women's team at the just concluded African Women Championship in Namibia and promised to formally play host to the African champions at a presidential dinner that will be announced later.
Jonathan was earlier billed to host the team, also known as the Super Falcons, at a dinner on Wednesday night but canceled the initial plan for unknown reasons.
"Today, we are quite pleased to receive the cup from you. You have made the country proud. Nigeria is known to be a soccer country," the president said.

Nigeria's trio of Francisca Ordega, Desire Oparanozie and Asisat Oshoala won the Most Valuable Player of the final match, Golden Boot and Most Valuable Player of the competition awards respectively.
The Nigerian team, along with second and third-place teams, Cameroon and Cote d'Ivoire, will represent Africa at the 2015 FIFA World Cup to be hosted by Canada.
VIENNA, Sept. 20 (Xinhua) -- Austrian President Alexander Van der Bellen has expressed disappointment at the speech made by U.S. President Donald Trump at the UN General Assembly on Tuesday.
Trump was "addressing his voters in the U.S. Cheap Boston Celtics Shirts ," and had spoken of "renationalization", local media on Wednesday quoted Van der Bellen as saying.
As the European Union is presently engaged in trying to achieve progress cooperatively rather than separately, such comments are a direct challenge, particularly when in many member states working together is a "question of existence," Van der Bellen said.
He said all European states are of the opinion that Iran has thus far held to the agreement, and that while Trump criticized it, he did not stipulate which points of the deal Iran has not met.
The Austrian head of state had also personally passed on two letters to the American president following the assembly. The first one was written by an 11-year-old girl who expressed her concern that climate change is indeed real Cheap Boston Celtics Jerseys , counter to scepticism from Trump on the issue.
Van der Bellen added a letter of his own in support of the girl, adding that the Paris agreement, which Trump had criticized, represents "great chances for a future-oriented economy and related technologies."

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 19 (Xinhua) -- The Internet Society (ISOC), a non-profit American organization founded by Internet pioneers Cheap Wesley Johnson Jersey , released this week the first-of-its-kind Global Internet Report, "Paths to our Digital Future," aimed at exploring the future of the Internet.
"Now is a big moment for the Internet. As we engaged with our community in the development of this report, it became clear that people are anxious about the future of the Internet," said the report, which uncovers a mix of challenges and opportunities in safeguarding the Internet for the next generation and makes recommendations on the steps that can be taken today to realize the Internet's promise for everyone, everywhere.
The Internet has profoundly shaped our world and has changed our lives in both big and small ways. The question is "whether we are ready for what's coming next Cheap Austin Rivers Jersey ," the report said.
The 2017 Global Internet Report examines the Internet over the next five to seven years and identifies the factors that will shape its future, including Artificial Intelligence (AI), cyber threats, Internet standards, the Internet of Things (IoT), the Internet economy and the rising role of government.
It also explores how these "drivers of change" will impact key areas including digital divides, personal freedoms and rights Cheap Patrick Beverley Jersey , as well as media and society. Taken together, these forces will change the Internet in dramatic ways over the coming years.
As part of ISOC's 25-year anniversary celebration, the 2017 Internet Hall of Fame induction ceremony was held on Monday.
Jianping Wu, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, was one of 14 people selected this year for induction to the Hall of Fame, according to a statement released by ISOC on Tuesday.
"China plays a huge role in technology and innovation. So I think in an ideal world, countries like China will participate in the development of solutions Cheap Sam Dekker Jersey ," Sally Wentworth, vice president of global policy for ISOC, told Xinhua.
"China should be part of the discussion (of Internet) and we do see that," she said.
"Our extensive research clearly shows that just as when the Internet Society was founded 25 years ago, people believe that the Internet's core values still remain valid -- that it must be global, open, secure Cheap Tobias Harris Jersey , and used for the benefit of people everywhere in the world," Wentworth said in a statement.
ISOC has said its mission is "to promote the open development, evolution, and use of the Internet for the benefit of all people throughout the world."
