A great champion who is a rare source of hope and pride for his nation.
I salute you brother for your achievements.
Every well meaning citizens of this supposedly great nation should applaud this great son of the soil.
Useless Minister.
Has he paid our basketballers their promised remunerations yet, or is he still doing photo ops all over the place?
Nice1,Kamaru Usman. I couldn’t help seeing the Green White Green colors and not some violent colors. A moment of celebration for every true Nigerian. Special appreciation goes to the NFF and other sports organs for the various programmes put in place at the grassroots. Good luck Kamaru!
