Nigeria Plans Ahead Of The 2015 Olympic Games





The Media Officer of Nigeria’s U23 Timi Ebikagboro has said that the Nigerian side will resume before the qualifiers for the 2016 Olympic Games scheduled for Rio in Brazil.

Timi Ebikagboro said the players that would be selected for camping would be based on merit, while those that are overseas would be invited to reinforce the team if the need arises.
According to him, any player that has not measured up will be dropped out for those who would add value to the team.
The team spokesperson said the players should not see their qualification for the AAG as the ultimate.
Nigeria failed to qualify for either of the men and women events of the 10th AAG in Maputo, Mozambique in 2011.
The West African nation team also failed to qualify for the 2012 Olympics in London. Enditem
