Black Queens yet to receive bonuses.

The Black Queens are yet to receive their winning bonuses for both home and away matches they won against Senegal in the African Women Nation qualifying matches which qualify them for the Nations Women soccer tournament in Nigeria next month.

The Queens who whipped the Senegalese 3-0 and 3-1, home and away respectively are yet to receive their total of one million cedis bonus each due them as promised.

Information gathered indicate that though the Queens were promised a half a million cedis for each match, the authorities are yet to make good their promise even in the first encounter.

Sources said the team has been asked to relax since there is no money readily on hand to pay them. The Queens won an impressive 3-0 in Dakar three weeks ago on the Senegalese home soil and went on to demolish them 3-1 in Kumasi last Saturday to further confirm their superiority.
