Three days to the end of the 2016 Olympic Games being held in Rio, when most of the athletes have concluded their events and even returned back to their bases, Team Nigeria has finally taken delivery of the much awaited Olympics kits.
Recall that Team Nigeria had to resort to their warm-up track suits for the Parade of Nations during the Opening Ceremony of the Games, as the Sports Ministry claimed the official attire which was showcased before President Muhammadu Buhari during the hand-over ceremony in Abuja failed to arrive on time for the ceremony.
The kits finally arrived on Wednesday night; but according to a top official of the Athletics Federation of Nigeria, they would no longer serve any purpose because “most of the athletes have left after concluding their events.”
He added that “I have never experienced this in my years in sports. Money meant for the Games was held tightly by ministry officials and they were just releasing money piecemeal. We had to buy kits on our own while some athletes competed in their personal kits.”
