Nigerian boxer, Bashiru Lawrence Ali, popularly known as Bash Ali, caused a stir on Thursday in Abuja as he accosted President Goodluck Jonathan and the Minister of Sports, Bolaji Abdullahi, in a bid to challenge for the world cruiser-weight title in Nigeria.

Ali, 57, is seeking to become the oldest man to hold a world boxing title defence. He had earlier taken his campaign to have his defence staged in Nigeria to the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) headquarters in Abuja on May 20, but said he was not allowed in. On Thursday, he jostled to get an audience with President Jonathan, who was at the Abuja National Stadium to inaugurate ‘Rhythm ‘N’ Play, a campaign to get all Nigerian youths engaged in sporting activities.

Bash Ali should go and get a life. He has become a nuisance. He's lost all respect, and a frustrated soul.

If you ask me, the so called fight is fiction. he is done this with several people and now no one wants to touch him.

If the minister was unavailable, he should have quietly left or book an appointment for another time. S

houting and insulting people wont get you favours from the government.
