Nigerian attacker Peace Ikediuba has completed her move to Ivorian women’s football giants ASEC Mimosas Féminines, beginning a new chapter in her career on the international stage.
Sports247 reports that the talented forward, who is a player of Prince Kazeem Eletu Queens of Lagos State, spent the 2025/26 season on loan with Nasarawa Amazons in the Nigeria Women’s Football League (NWFL), gaining valuable experience competing at the highest level of domestic women’s football in Nigeria.
Her performances during the loan spell have now earned her an opportunity to continue her development outside Nigeria, with ASEC Mimosas securing her services as the Ivorian club targets success on the continental stage.
Ikediuba has already been handed the prestigious No. 9 jersey and made her competitive debut for ASEC Mimosas in their opening fixture of the WAFU-B Women’s Champions League Qualifying Tournament.
The Nigerian attacker started the encounter against Ghanaian side Ampem Darkoa Ladies, but ASEC Mimosas suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat, leaving the Ivorian side needing a positive result in their next fixture.
Ikediuba will now face a familiar challenge when ASEC Mimosas take on Nigerian champions Edo Queens on Thursday, August 27, in a crucial Group B encounter.
The match carries significant importance for both teams, particularly ASEC Mimosas, who need maximum points to strengthen their hopes of progressing from the group and remaining in contention for qualification for the CAF Women’s Champions League.
For Ikediuba, the encounter presents an intriguing opportunity to face a club from her home country while representing her new team.
Edo Queens, meanwhile, will enter the fixture with confidence after their emphatic 7-0 victory over AS GNN of Niger in their opening match, with head coach Kennedy Boboye’s side already demonstrating their attacking strength.
ASEC Mimosas will therefore need a strong response, and much could depend on Ikediuba’s attacking contribution as the Ivorian side looks to revive its campaign.
The young Nigerian forward will hope to use her pace, movement and finishing ability to make an impact against the reigning Nigerian champions.
With ASEC Mimosas needing victory and Edo Queens aiming to maintain their winning momentum, Thursday’s encounter promises to be one of the key fixtures of the WAFU-B qualifying tournament.
For Peace Ikediuba, it will be more than another match — it will be an opportunity to make her mark in her new colours against the champions of her homeland.
