Nigeria’s Olympic team fails to train


Nigeria’s U-23 team were unable to train on Friday evening, because the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), failed to provide necessary logistics.

The Dream Team VI, who resumed camping in Abuja on Wednesday, could not make it to training, because there was no bus to convey the players.

It is also understood that the management of the Starview Palace Hotel, Gwarimpa, are threatening to throw the players out over unpaid bills.

“We can’t come for the evening training because there is no bus to convey us to the stadium. But we hope to train tomorrow,” Siasia confirmed to Goal.

“It is pathetic and very bad. This is the time we are supposed to concentrate on the team for us to achieve our goal and ambition of winning the gold medal in the Olympics this time around. But can we achieve this with the way things are?

“You guys (media) have not been helping us but it is to publish other stories that cannot help the team.

“But as a patriotic Nigerian I will do my best to psych up the players and my other colleagues to achieve our ambition.”
