RIO BLUES: NWF PRESIDENT IGALI LOOSES N1M OVER GOLD BET

After loosing a N1 Million Naira bet on a Gold medal win, Nigeria's Technical Director of the NWF, Hon  Igali is devastated by the Gold-less status of  Nigeria’s five female wrestlers at the ongoing Rio Olympic. He said: “I had placed a N1 million bet on these girls winning medals.“I feel so sad and sorry for these wrestlers because they have put in a lot of hard work to get these poor results.“It is indeed sad because these wrestlers sacrificed a lot and did not deserve these defeats. Results state that, Reuben Hanna Amuchechi lost 4-1 to Canadian Dorothy Yeats in the 69kg freestyle, while Mercy Genesis (48kg) lost 5-0 to Nina Matowustka of Poland. Aminat Adeniyi (58kg) also lost her fight in the round of 16 like her compatriots.
