“YOU are heroes and I want to congratulate you for the work you have done. This is a sport that, even without support, is surprising, it is a great revelation with a selection made up of young people who bring brilliant results to the country.”
The praise was from the President of the Republic, Filipe Nyusi, who received, yesterday morning, as a courtesy, the National Boxing Team that recently won nine medals at the “African Championship” in Yaoundé, Cameroon.
The statesman received the national team with the purpose of congratulating them on Cameroon's achievement and assured that the Government will start paying more attention to this sport, especially because, as he stressed, the lack of conditions for an athlete causes noises that rob him of his focus.
