“My main ambition is to play and keep my team at the top of the table. I will do my best.”
Speaking on growing up playing football which is dominated by males in Nigeria, Abdulkareem says, “As a female player, playing football in the midst of male was never easy while growing up. But it makes me stronger and gives me more confidence.”

“One of my biggest targets is to play for the national team. I have played at the junior level with U17 team.

I believe there is time for everything, and with God, dedication and hard work, I am sure it will happen.
“My message to my fans is that they should keep supporting me.”
