This is nonsense to me. I call this wastefull utilization of public funds, N138.4 million is a whole lot of money that can help the the country .All sectors in Nigeria especilly the gorvement sectors are so so poor etc etc. ok this is my proposal. Why sponsor celebrities to go and so football. football is supportted by those who love it. And besides celebrities are rich. If the sincerely love the country and want to support they can do that we thier own money. I URGE THE SO CALL NIGERIAN GOVERMENT TO YUSE THAT MONEY AND INEEST IN INT THE HEALTH SECTOR OR IN SCHOOLS,OR WATER,OR ELECTRICITIY OR EVEN ROAD ETC
