It has not been for several years.  It is worse if you are a retired athlete.  To be an ageing retired athlete is the worst condition imaginable in Nigeria. The country is littered with our pathetic stories of a generally excruciatingly painful, difficult and frustrating life.   Some good Nigerians have been applying soothing balm to the pains of retired athletes. There are also sports persons whose exploits have been inspiring, providing relief and hope not just for athletes but for the entire country.  Of course, we know and acknowledge the previous interventions of Femi Otedola, Babatunde Fashola, Mike Adenuga, Babajide Sanwo-Olu and a few others, but permit me to salute a few more today. In the midst of all the current challenges of life and of living in Nigeria, they are touching lives, alleviating physical and mental stresses without demanding any gratification in return.  This day, I want to lift them up with my humble voice to the Creator of the Universe, in supplication and gratitude."}
