Nigeria Boxing Federation Demands Compensation Over Liverpool Ban

The Nigeria Boxing Federation seeks compensation after Nigerian boxers were banned from a tournament in Liverpool due to delayed test results. Three boxers, including Zainab Adeshina and Mistura Idowu, were excluded despite meeting requirements.

The NBF sent a formal letter to the World Boxing President seeking redress. Internal criticism arises over the costly trip's mismanagement, with calls for an investigation into fund usage.

The exclusion of Nigerian boxers raises concerns about fair treatment and the impact on their international participation. The federation aims to address the issue to prevent future setbacks for Nigerian athletes.
