The Minister of youth and sports development, Sunday Dare will Monday inaugurate a Committee to investigate the participation of the Athletics Federation of Nigeria at the 2019 World Athletics Championships in Doha, Qatar, Bestchoicesports.com.ng can report.

The constitution of the panel is part of measures to forestall a reoccurrence of the challenges that resulted in shambolic performance of Team Nigeria athletes at the tournament.

The inauguration, which is scheduled to hold by 2pm at the Media Centre Package ‘ A’, MKO Abiola Stadium in Abuja, will set the terms of reference for the Committee, chiefly amongst which will be to investigate the immediate and remote causes of the unimpressive performance of Team Nigeria at Doha. And the general disaffection amongst the athletes.

It would be recalled that the Minister directed the recall of Mr Sunday Adeleye, Technical Director of Athletics Federation of Nigeria, AFN from the World Athletics Championships on the heels of avoidable massive and unacceptable technical and administrative lapses  that embarrassed  the nation.
