  • Fabio!!! How can I forget Fabio, the voice that cries in NTA bringing commentaries from the very action on the field of play to Nigerians? He had a good sense of recounting past events and did his job with finesse. May God continue to keep you, Sir! And may you live long enough to eat the fruits of your contribution to the sports world. Happy birthday Sir!

    I duff my hat for Pa Fabio, Tony Akiotu, Hammmeed Adio, Akinloye Oyebanji and all the great heroes who brought sport news and commentary to us those days.
