I am not Nigerian,and I know of many Nigerians who would say I should keep off Nigerian affairs. But I love Africa, Nigeria included. The World athletics championships are going on in Berlin, Germany, but Nigerians are not saying much about the poor performance. They should, and if they don't I will. It was very sad to hear a Nigerian athlete, being interviewed on BBC on 17th August, and complaining of lack of support for Nigerian athletes by their Government. Nigeria is a leading sports country in Africa, with the highest population,and yet it is my country Kenya, and Ethiopia which are leading in the medal hunt. Doesn't Nigeria have an athletics association? And if it is there, what are they doing? Or did they travel to Berlin for shopping as usual?

IF THE SPORTS OFFICIALS CANNOT DO THE JOB, LET THEM RESIGN AND LEAVE THOSE WHO HAVE NIGERIA'S INTEREST AT HEART DO THE JOB

The athletes have a right to be taken care of by their Government. They love their country. That is why they dorn their country colours, even if it means they lose. We should not have athletes complaining about being neglected. And as an African, I expect Nigeria to bag medals in these games. And will cheer them just as much as I cheer athletes from Kenya
