[HCDX] Radio Nigeria Kaduna on Extended Schedule

["Graham Powell" <graham@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Radio Nigeria Kaduna on 4770 kHz was heard last night with an extended broadcast to cover the
Under-17 World Cup Quarter Final match between Nigeria and Australia in Trinidad & Tobago. The
Football commentary started at 2330 UTC on 4770 kHz and was extremely interesting, especially
with Nigeria defeating Australia 5-1, thanks to a hat-trick from striker Femi Opabunmi ensuring
the convincing victory. The broadcast ended shortly after the conclusion of the match, signing
off at 0130 UTC with the National Anthem.

Nigeria's Golden Eaglets will now contest the semi-final on Thursday and could see themselves up
against African opposition as Burkina Faso will play Costa Rica tonight in another Quarter Final
Match.

The match on Thursday between Nigeria and the winner of the Burkina Faso/Costa Rica Match is
scheduled for a kick off at 2330 UTC, so Radio Nigeria Kaduna on 4770 kHz will almost certainly
be on extended schedule again this Thursday, September 27th, 2001.
