Chairman House Committee On Sports Calls For Drastic Measure Over Poor state of Sports Sector
—Says Administrators should learn to resign in Nigeria
Joel Ajayi
Chairman House committee on Sports, Honourable Ekene Abubakar Adams says something drastic needs to be done to get Nigeria Sports working again, in the face of the current sporting challenges.
There are still uncertainties surrounding if Team Nigeria will have a good performance at next month’s Olympic games in Paris, France and the Nigeria senior National team is currently not doing well after finishing second at the Last AFCON in Ivory Coast.
The Chairman, House Committee on Sports, Honourable Ekene, who represents Chikun/Kajuru Federal constituency, reacting to the recent turn of events insisted that measures must be taken for genuine changes to be effected in Nigeria Sports.
“In civilised World people resign if they are not doing well and we can see with the Dortmund Coach, Edin Terzic, who has just resigned after losing the Uefa Champions league final. Maybe I am the one to even resign because the truth is People must learn how to throw in the towel if results are not good enough because I strongly believe Something must be done”
On if the House Committee on Sports will invite the leadership of the NFF, the lawmaker said ” the Minister of Sports has already invited them and he is in the right direction”.

Rather than reschedule his bout against Parker, International Boxing Federation (IBF) champion Dubois had hoped for a return clash with Usyk, who defeated the Briton by ninth-round knockout in August 2023.
Dubois re-established himself in the heavyweight ranks with stoppage wins over Jarrell Miller and Filip Hrgovic before most recently knocking out compatriot Anthony Joshua, himself a former world champion, at Wembley in September to take his professional record to 22 wins, with two losses and 21 knockouts.
The 27-year-old Dubois was understood to be in talks to face Usyk in a fight that would see all four major world heavyweight titles up for grabs but the WBO’s announcement has complicated the picture in a sport where the lack of a single global governing body means there are often multiple world champions in the same weight class.
