Great!
Only draw-back is the synthetic pitch...
Sub-Sahara Africa should really invest in grounds mgt...Congo DPR has minimum 6 months rainy season; enough to sustain a decent natural turf...

For a start, consult SAfrica (on grounds mgt) which is a mere 2hrs flight away...

Why South Africa?

The gown must meet town and our academics must start to have an impact in industry and life.

How many Universities of Agriculture do we have again? I tried to contact the NUC to jumpstart a database for bankable research from Nigerian Universities (actually got to the point of meeting the Executive Secretary), but they did not seem too keen.

I came across an expansive and lush grass-field (it was also tough grass) while on a compass match many decades ago in Jos. Even then, I kept thinking, 'we can use this for some stadia'. I know the weather in Jos is not typical, but that is where the Agric/Botany Eggheads should make their impact felt.

I came across an expansive and lush grass-field (it was also tough grass) whole on a compass match many decades ago in Jos. Even then, I kept thinking, 'we can use this for some stadia'.

Bros, I was referring to the Congolese club who are building the stadium...no excuses for adopting artificial pitch; they could consult groundsmen at nearby SAfrica about maintenance of decent natural pitches...

In the case of Nigeria, we know our problem as regards grounds mgt; but just don't want to address them...
