Forget about our bad performance. Nigeria went to London with 200 officials, 53 Athletes and N850 Million and returned with 0 Medals.


What were all those officials doing to the athletes? Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly

Earning allowances!

When Kenyan athletes decided to delay the trip to London because of the weather, the officials left WITHOUT THEM!!! Why? Some allowances are based on the days you are at the games and by delaying their departure, the athletes were negatively affecting their pay package!!! If I'm not wrong, only ONE official was left in Kenya with the athletes! The number of Kenya official was also unproportionally high! Not Nigerian high, but high all the same!
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

You are right. The two athletics bodies concerned were in KFF - KPL kind of tug of wars! The fellows couldn't even agree where the athletes should train!!

I think the government through the ministry of sports should have a greater oversight and more teeth and balls to regulate/control this bodies. The organizations are totally mismanaging ALL sports! The only remaining sports unaffected by the cancer - rugby and athletics - are also down the sewer! Time for radical surgery!
