Nigerians please don't forget that this is campaign time where people can come out and make statements that they'll later deny. Lets sit and wait until they fulfil their promise. APC and promises.

Nations Sport can report that before Wednesday’s crucial Semi-final match against the Sudan Each of the CHAN Eagles received $8,000 only being payment of their match bonuses for the ongoing tournament in Morocco.

Each player is entitle to $2000 win bonus per game and the team’s Media Officer, Toyin Ibitoye, who confirmed the players have received the payment explained that the sum only covered up to the quarter-final stage of the championship.

If CHAN Eagles got $2000 per match, the amount given to Commonwealth Games medalists is very DISAPPOINTING.

This is a joke grin
Buhari
You will not go unpunished
1.8million
Upon all the sacrifice
I always say that this country is useless.
Nonsense

I will advise the athlete to renounce their citizenship
and go to Bahrain

The life of an athlete is a short one
Once you're 35 youre done for
So youve got to make that dough and do it fast.
