A sports city for athletes, fun-seekers, prostitutes


Amidst rusty facilities inside the National Stadium, Lagos, athletes, business-oriented people and fun-seekers have kept the Sports City going, reports Idris Adesina
It is no longer news that the National Stadium, Lagos, is in a state of disrepair and suffers from lack of maintenance but the stadium amazingly still serves the interests of many.
Recently, the place witnessed some positive changes. For instance, the abandoned swimming pool complex, is wearing a new look and is close to completion while the completed Brai Ayonote Boxing Hostel, now serves as a camp for the country’s boxers ahead of major events.
The hostel was refurbished in 2015 after several years in ruins and serving as home to hoodlums.
