Unlike Super Falcons star Toni Payne who received a playful beating from Sevilla teammates, Ajibade returned straight to training based on photos on social media.

Before she left the country, Ajibade known for her conversation about Jesus put out photos of an outreach.

Along with the photos was a message that said, "James 1:27 reminds us that genuine religion in the eyes of God entails compassion for orphans and widows in their times of struggle, while resisting the world's corrupting influences.

"A few days back, I joined forces with my like-minded friends on a heartwarming journey to a Makoko slum in Lagos, Nigeria. Our mission was twofold: to extend acts of kindness and to share the gospel's light (Mark 16:15). 🙏🏽

"The day brought a mix of emotions. On one hand, witnessing the receptive young souls, children beaming with promise, and parents embracing hope, filled my heart with joy.

"Yet, it was also a poignant experience. The sight of the distressed environment, dilapidated homes, and the immense challenges these resilient people face on a daily basis, left me profoundly moved. 😢🏚️

"Our journey reminded me that there's immense beauty in uniting for a cause, shedding light in the darkest corners, and sowing seeds of hope. 

"Let's continue to spread love, kindness, and positivity, making a difference one step at a time. 🌟❤️

Ajibade will now take part in pre-season for Atletico Madrid as they prepare for the new season.
