Bash Ali Reacts To Evander Holyfield's Invitation To Nigeria, Slams Lagos Govt. by CastedDude: 11:51am On May 26, 2017 |
Former boxing champion, Bash Ali boxer, has slammed the Lagos State Government for the invitation to American former World Heavyweight boxing champion, Evander Holyfield for an exhibition-boxing bout in Lagos State. The Lagos State Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode, had as part of the 50th year anniversary of the creation of Lagos State invited Holyfield, a five-time World Cruiserweight and Heavyweight boxing champion, for a scheduled boxing match with a former governor of the state, Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The Nigerian boxing legend, lamented on his Facebook page that he would have been invited for the boxing showcase instead of the American because of his contribution to the economy of Lagos and Nigeria. He wrote; “I was born and raised in Lagos. I am a world boxing champion, I have contributed to the economic growth of Nigeria through sport and I was rewarded with the highest national honour ever given to a Nigerian athlete, Officer of the Order of the Niger (OON). American former world boxing champion, Evander Holyfield is in Lagos as a special guest of the government to celebrate Lagos at 50 and I am not invited. The labour of our heroes past shall never be in vain…lol,” . Source; http://www.nationalhelm.net/2017/05/bash-ali-slams-lagos-government-for.html 25 Likes 4 Shares

Shame on Nigeria. We value the west more than our own. -If LASG will pay for Holyfield to visit Lagos as a guest when Bash Ali is a tenant in Lagos. -When we celebrate Halloween and demonize the Oro and Ekpe festivals. -When Government officials use BMWs and Mercedes Benz when we have Innosons and yet scream buy Nigerian to grow the Naira -When we watch Kaitlyn Jenner's show on E! and call Denrele and Bobrisky perverts. -When PeterPsquare, an Anambra boy goes to London just to watch live Chelsea FC matches yet he has never been to the Ifeanyi Uba FC Stadium at Nnewi. -when herdsmen slaughters are not talked about by supposed celebrities but you hear them tweet #PrayForParis and co. When will we value our own When will our inferiority complex end Still I weep 580 Likes 63 Shares |
