We promised to work round the clock to discover all that have contributed to sports in one way or the other, either in the grassroots or at the national and international levels. Provided it has something to do with sports we must unveil them to you, our dear esteemed readers.
It is in this vein that, this week, The Newswriter sports desk is unveiling a man who had used the most loved sport in the world (soccer) to maintain peace, at a time Diobu was in confusion.
This man at the heat of the troubles and problems created by the militants, defied all odds and organized a peace soccer tournament, where some of the militants too participated without causing any problem or trouble.
