HOST MOROCCO RUE TUMBLING ON AFRICAN GAMES MEDALS TABLE

BY KUNLE SOLAJA, RABAT.

Hosts Morocco have fallen to the fifth Position on Medals table as the African Games gradually draws to a close.

The hosts were on the third spot behind run-away leaders, Egypt and South Africa, for the last four days, until Team Nigeria began a steady rise.

But the hosts deserve commendation having been absent from the Games since 1978 and did a rescue job following the inability of the originally designated hosts, Zambia.
