SHAME!!! Falcons Players Lap Themselves In A Rickety Bus To and From Training


SHAME!!!
...30 players, 2 officials pack themselves in a 14 passenger Rickety bus. By Niyi Busari Nigeria's U-20 women national team which is presently in camp in Abuja preparing ahead of the 2018 FIFA U-20 Women World Cup in August in France. The two times world cup finalist engaged in a friendly game against FOSLA Academy on Wednesday which they narrowly lost to the Academy boys by a lone goal. It was shocking and in fact national embarrassment to see the Nigerian national team players lapping each other to the training ground. Despite the stress they went through playing a two hours friendly match, they still went into the bus lapping each other and this will continue till August when they will leave for the world cup finals in France. It is always said that the present Nigeria Football Federal board in particular does not have the interest of Nigerian footballers at heart. How else can one describe packing a world cup bound 30 players in a 14 passengers rickety bus to and from training for three months. In fact, wickedness is an understatement. How do you expect such players to give their utmost best when their welfare means nothing to the selfish football administrators that leave their primary assignments unattended, yet clamouring for second term in office. BSN Sports understand that the bus was donated in 2007 by former Ondo state governor, late Olusegun Agagu. Now, eleven year after, the bus is not different from the one farmers use to ferry their farm produce to the market place. The Falcons is group D alongside the three times world champions Germany, Haiti and China.
