Samuel Akaolisa Enwerem

Today, we celebrate the birthday of Coach Judith Seember Benson, a remarkable figure in the world of football and a true trailblazer from Benue State.

As a born football administrator and a certified advanced coach with the Nigeria Institute For Sports (NIS), Coach Judith has made significant contributions to the sport, earning her rightful place in history.

*A Record of Achievement*
Coach Judith made headlines last year when she became the only female coach from Benue State to graduate from National Institute For Sports advanced coaching program. This milestone not only showcased her dedication but also highlighted the potential of women in sports leadership, inspiring many aspiring female athletes and coaches in the region.

*The Invincible Angels of Gboko*
One of Judith’s most notable achievements is her instrumental role in establishing The Invincible Angels of Gboko, a prominent female football team that emerged following the dissolution of the Benue Queens.
Under her guidance, the team has gained recognition and respect in the local and national football scenes, becoming a stronghold for female talent in the region.

*Commitment to Continuous Learning*
In her quest for further knowledge and excellence, Coach Judith has taken proactive steps to enhance her coaching skills. With the support of Barr. Paul Edeh and the Benue State Football Association, she is currently enrolled in the ongoing CAF C coaching training course. This commitment to continuous development reflects her dedication to nurturing and grooming future footballers.

Today, as we honor Coach Judith Benson on her birthday, we celebrate not just her achievements but also her role as a mentor and leader in the community. She embodies resilience, passion, and a vision for a brighter future in women’s football.

*Happy birthday, Judith! May this year bring you even more success and inspire countless others to follow in your footsteps.*
