If only Buhari knew the huge employment opportunity University sports can generate, they will tap into it. Properly managed, it is enough to reduce the prevalence of cult groups as loyalties and sense of belonging are shifted to the teams fanbase. College sports is HUGE business in the USA. The stadiums of most universities and secondary schools is bigger and better than some proffesional teams in Africa. 3 Likes 2 Shares |
