Jesus

The government expects the youths to do the right thing yet they are not doing the right thing themselves. This is a simple issue of endorsement deal must they fight over money? Very embarrassing moment to be Nigerian I swear.

The annoying part is the small incentives that our athletes would have collected has been denied them.

If you put an unqualified being or someone who is a mediocre and without merit to head a federation he will leave it in ruins

I will never condemn or castigate the Minister of sports,some of the blame should go to the clueless Dalung,the former Minster of sports,this is one of the terrible seeds of infamy he planted during his tenure.
I like Sunday Dare because he has done what no sport minister has done since I started following sports in Nigeria. He has refused to interfere in the the Nigerian Football Federation,every sport minister in Nigeria since independence has always interfered in the football federation,but Mr Sunday Dare has gone above board in his dealings with the federation,for the athletic federation,I expect everyone in the federation to tender their resignation and March to the EFCC to state their own side of this shameful episode.

Chijeep:
and some idiots were shouting in Jonathan regime that if Buhari becomes the president that corruption can never occur. That Jonathan is too dumb.
SO WHAT DO WE CALL THIS ONE NOW

Who said corruption would stop, did Buhari’s tenure change you from thinking the way you do? An evil mind, is an evil mind, that is beyond the jurisdiction of the President.

Or what?

Just imagine!

All of them want to loot Nigeria dry

Fraud corruption and bribery the Nigerian norm

Sports wears manufacturing giant Puma on Wednesday officially terminated sponsorship contract with the Athletics Federation of Nigeria.

The contract cancellation follows the embarrassing scandal that has pitched the AFN officials against Nigeria’s ministry of youth and sports due to the $2.7 millon kits sponsorship.

The German company disclosed this in a statement addressed to the Athletics Federation of Nigeria.

Tokyo Olympics: Facts About The Puma Contract and Its Aftermath By Chibuike Anyanwu

Yesterday, the media was awash with news about the termination of kits supply contract by Puma to Team Nigeria. The deal signed in 2019 before the appointment of the current Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Sunday Dare was supposed to lapse in 2022. The contract signed by the then leadership of the Athletics Federation of Nigeria (AFN), Ibrahim Gusau had a Non-Disclosure Agreement without the supervision of the Ministry, in total disregard for due process.

Mr Dare on assumption of office discovered that funds for the Puma kits contract was paid into personal accounts and the then Gusau-led AFN signed a confidentiality clause in the contract with PUMA which prevented them from revealing details of the contract to the supervising body,the Ministry of Youth and Sports Development. This is the bone of contention which is antithetical to transparency and accountability mantra of the Buhari administration.

The contract has led to an ongoing legal battle between the sports ministry and Gusau. In addition, Gusau, alongside Sunday Adeleye, technical director of the body, were dragged to court by the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) for alleged diversion of over $75,000.

Therefore, it becomes pertinent that the Ministry protects Nigerian athletes by refusing to allow them adorn the Puma branded apparel at the on-going Tokyo Olympics because because it is a subject of criminal investigation.

While there has since been a legitimate AFN leadership led by Tonobock Okowa elected by over two-thirds of members since June 2021, the Gusau has continued his campaign of calumny against the Ministry and Nigeria's interest by wilfully sabotaging preparations for the Olympics and expending a whooping N2.7bn to sponsor negative stories in the media. He was responsible for refusing to release details of testing to athletes to ensure that Nigeria fails, and the Minister is disgraced, just because their criminal diversion was stopped in its tracks.

It is quite incongruous that some publications claimed that the Department of State Security (DSS) cleared Gusau of any wrongdoing. That is quite laughable because the DSS is in charge of State Security. Its purview does not extend to investigating criminal matters or corruption allegations. As at today, Gusau has been charged to court by the Police and a "Prima facie" case has been established against him for misapplication of funds and criminal diversion.

It really stands logic on its head that Sunday Dare, a lawyer and seasoned administrator who had served meritoriously as a National Commissioner in Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) amongst other roles in public and private sector would be negligent in his handling of preparations for the Olympics or wilfully bring Nigeria to disrepute in any form.

The crime of the Minister is that he refused to bend the rules and join in the bazaar of sharing the loot, hence Gusau vowed to bring him down, after the emergence of a new board of the Athletics Federation led to his ouster.

Now that the contract has been terminated, let's see how Gusau will refund the $2.7m. Nemesis is catching up sooner than later!

Okay. This is some explanation.

Oya Gusau over to you.

Patriotism has gone to the dogs. And people have been abusing the minister, whereas he's done the right thing

Omo na to edit that document then reason better formats now o. Be like I go give one Asian man puma contract make I go create account

The dust-up is a suspect!

How was there a diversion of monies for the PUMA contract into private accounts, when PUMA stated its contracts were at zero cost, plus they have award monies to athletes….it does not make sense.

And stop with putting Buhari & Transparency or Buhari & Anticorruption in one statement….they are polar opposites.

I really don't know why people are castigated the minister instead of castigated the erstwhile Gusau-led Nigerian athletics federation. The minister did the right thing by preventing corruption from continuing to fester.

By the mention of Biafra we shall unite and love our rotten decaying cage called nigeria

Sunday Dare isn't a disgrace.
He did the right thing.
The past administration signed a non-disclosure contract with PUMA, so the new administration of Sunday Dare do not know the terms and conditions of the contract. They kept it as a secret which is d height of corruption.
What if d terms and conditions of the contract is to sell off all d medals won by athletes in d Olympics?

The new administration must know d terms and conditions of the previous contract with PUMA for them to be able to work with PUMA
