President General of Nigeria Football and other Sports Supporters Club, Rafiu Ladipo has made a passionate appeal to the Japanese embassy not to delay the issuance of visas to members of his club that are preparing to go to Japan and support Nigeria's female U-20 team known as "Falconets" in this year's FIFA women U-20 World Cup to be hosted by the country from August 19- September, 8, 2012.
Ladipo said, members of the club had in the past two weeks been appealing to the Japanese Embassy for visasand the need to issue them on time to enable the team travel to the Asian nation on August 14 and be part of the opening ceremony.
He noted that the appeal became necessary so as to avoid a repeat of the club's experience when they were issued visas late during 2002 Korea /Japan World Cup that made them miss some of the matches involving the Super Eagles.
