Blessing Okagbare said “I have said it before and I will say it again. If you do not know the sport, are not passionate about it/us (the athletes), then you have no business there as an administrator. The sport system in Nigeria is so flaw and we the athletes are always at the receiving end of the damages. They are busy fighting to overpower. Exercising their pride over puma contract/kits forgetting their major responsibility “THE ATHLETES”. It’s sad that this cycle keeps repeating itself and some people will come out to say I am arrogant for speaking my truth. It is my CAREER”.
