As Nigerians await tomorrow’s announcement of ministerial appointees,
the President of the Nigerian Rugby Football Federation, Sir Edward Pam
Fom has appealed to the President of Nigeria, Retired General Muhammadu Buhari
to put a round peg in a round hole as minister of sports.
Speaking
from South Africa where the National team are currently preparing for
the Olympics qualifiers, Pam Fom said, in the past, Ministers of
football were often appointed rather than sports minister.
He
said since we are in the era of change, a minister who knows his onions
and has open mind towards other sports federation should be given the
chance to reposition the sector.
He finally frowned at some
school of thoughts that had been clamuoring for the scraping of the
office of the minister of sports as he described them as ignorant.
Pam Fom Says Nigeria Needs A Sports Minister Not Football Minister.
