Team Nigeria Recount How They Travelled For All Africa Games by RoadBy Mod - 6 minutes ago - [ Sport ]

Team Nigeria, represented by 85 athletes and 15 coaches recently returned from Abidjan, Ivory Coast where the All Africa Games was hosted. The team on returning told their experiences at the games. Nigeria finished overall third with medals while also breaking records, but the team have come out to say that the trip to Abidjan was nothing more than a sacrifice for the country.

Team Nigeria who traveled on land for three days to get to Abidjan and took another road trip back to the country stated their disappointments at the country, after it refused to provide them with the necessary funds to travel for the games.

 

“It was sad we left Nigeria for Abidjan without a kobo, but I must commend officials of the AFN, and the governments of Delta and Lagos states for providing some logistics for the team.

“Majority of our athletes must have gained a lot of exposure from the trip because it was the first time some of them traveled outside Nigeria. We finished third behind South Africa and Kenya in the overall medals table, but for us, it was more than the result. Exposure means a lot for young athletes, and that was our major gain from the trip to Abidjan,” Porbeni, an ex-Director of sports in Delta State stated.
