TAFAUN Tackles AFN, Ministry Over Adeleye

• Renews call for his removal
Members of the Track and Field Athletes Union of Nigeria (TAFAUN) have renewed their call for the removal of Sunday Adeleye as their representative on the board of the Athletics Federation of Nigeria (AFN).Sports Minister, Sunday Dare, sacked Adeleye from his position as the Technical Director of AFN two weeks ago following the recommendation by a probe panel set up to investigate Nigeria’s poor performance at Doha 2019 IAAF World Championship.

Before then, a total of 120 athletes had signed a petition calling for Adeleye’s removal as their representative on the board of AFN.
