Report has it that the contingent from various African countries billed for the African Senior Athletics Championships are stranded in Lagos due to flight to Asaba, venue of the competition being unavailable. 

It was revealed that the athletes who managed to reach Asaba had spent at least a night in Lagos and many without their luggage. 

An International Association of Athletics Federation (IAAF) observer for the event beginning on Wednesday, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) anonymously that he arrived in Lagos on Sunday but could not get a flight to Asaba. 

“A lot of us had to pass the night in Lagos and at about 4 p.m. the following day, we boarded a local flight to Asaba,’’ he told NAN on Tuesday in Asaba. “By this time, the African contingent have increased in number and only limited spaces in the flight, so, a few had to stay back in Lagos.

“As I speak to you, my luggage hasn’t arrived in Asaba. We were told to go to the Asaba International Airport later in the day to see if they have brought them. “I am still on the same clothes since yesterday. It is just a terrible situation,’’ he said.

Abdoulaye Thiam, a Senegalese journalist, currently stranded in Lagos, told NAN via a social media platform that he had arrived on Monday but remained in Lagos due to same issue. 

The event is scheduled for Aug 1 to Aug. 5, at the Stephen Keshi Stadium.

Nigeria is a disgrace all over the world. the bad image of the country, the broken system, the disorderliness of Government official is just so shameful, people will come just the way we visit their countries only to taste the ugly situation of a corrupt lackadaisical incompetent so called leaders.
Even Ethiopia or Rwanda or just mention any country in Africa don't have things so bad as to be disorganized

my sympathy for the athletic ambassador, Pray they don't get robbed by insensitive Nigerians

Can there ever be Good news in this country?

See mumu when dey wait for flight. Una no fit charter God is good or the young mulue to asaba. Is about 4 hours by road

Incompetence everywhere, to think buhari spent six months before finding dalung, this is the mediocrity Nigerians still want to keep up with in 2019.

And some of these athletes are expected to be on the track by 9am today.

Nigeria matter ehn.

One day that spell that was casted on Africa. Will be broken..

Buhari's body odour is causing serious weather turbulence, so they have to wait until it settles to avoid air crash.
