Super Eagles Captain, Ahmed Musa has given N500,000 to former Nigerian Olympic Athlete Bassey Etim spotted filling Pot Holes in Ajah, Lagos State.
Bassey Etim, who won a gold medal at the 1983 Commonwealth Games in Malta, stated that he suffered an injury while representing Nigeria at the 1984 Olympic Games.
Etim, 56, revealed that he had to spend his life savings for his treatment, claiming he was abandoned by Nigeria.
He said: “I sustained an injury, and when I came back, Nigeria refused to take care of my injury, so I had to use my life savings to go back to America in September 1985 to take care of the injury.
“But I still come out to volunteer myself to give back to my country. “People are saying, ‘why should you do that? They didn’t take care of you’.
