The Golden Eaglets of Nigeria won the FIFA U17 World Cup for the fifth time in Chile after defeating their African counterpart by 2-0.

It is important to note that the first time the title was won in China 1985 was when President Muhammad Buhari was the military head of state in Nigeria, and now the title has been won under his leadership again as a civilian leader.

This however has made President Muhammad Buhari the only Nigerian President who received the title on two occasions both as a military and a civilian leader.
