AFN Chief Dismisses Claims of Inferior Kits Amid Athlete Grievances

Dikko dismisses claims of inferior kits in Athletics Federation Nigeria (AFN) and clarifies Amusan's grievances were about packaging, not quality. Amusan criticized AFN for poorly packaged gear in a nylon bag instead of a branded suitcase.

Dikko defended AFN, stating the kits were procured from a global sportswear brand to standard specifications. He highlighted that the controversy stemmed from presentation and logistics, not the quality of the gear.

Dikko acknowledged past kit controversies but emphasized that Nigeria's athletes were not at a disadvantage. The debate reignited following Amusan's remarks, questioning if AFN had learned from past mistakes.
