Veteran Athletics coach Brown Ebewele has stated that the Nigeria’s Sports ministry should deal with the consequences of the disqualification of 10 Nigerian athletes by the Athletics Integrity Unit which meant only 13 of the 23 names registered are eligible to compete at the Tokyo Olympics Athletics events which will starts on Friday.
Ebewele speaking in a chat with brila.net revealed that the whole process was midwifed by the ministry even when he was in charge of the training of the athletes before the training tour of the USA until he was asked to step down for raising certain questions.
He added that whatever befalls Nigeria should be one the ministry can deal with notwithstanding the unfortunate nature of the development.
