Team Nigeria will not be competing at the world athletics relays billed from May 1-2 in Poland as disagreement between the Athletics Federation of Nigeria (AFN) and the ministry of youths and sports development escalates.
“Nigeria will not participate in the World Relays because the Ministry of Youth and Sports opted to take the athletes to a training tour in the United States for the same relays, they are yet to qualify for, instead of a pre- Olympic Games qualification in Poland,” Ibrahim Shehu-Gusau, AFN factional president, was quoted to have said.
