Nigerians taking part in the varsity games here at Kenyatta University are saying they are finding it hard coping with Kenyans food and weather.
One of the officials told Nation Sport that unlike in Nigeria, Kenyans food is less oily thus not appealing to them.
He added that the food is “so light” that their players go hungry just a few minutes after eating. “In Nigeria we have real food not what we are eating here," said the official.
He also said they cannot wait to board the next plane back to Nigeria as the weather in Nairobi is “too cold” that it has taken a toll in their performance here.
