The boisterous Ihiala City in Anambra State will on April 5 welcome its first world-class golf facility, which will be known as Acropolis Golf Course, the sponsors of the project have said.
Built by Nest Oil to cement its presence in the Southeast, and also boost tourism in Anambra State, the new facility is also expected to add to the visibility of the town located at the heart of the major highway linking Anambra State with Imo.
Nigeria’s former number one professional golfer, Mike Ubi, who has been working with the facility owners to bring some of its characters to international specifications, said the course would change the dynamics for the game. Buoyed by his display against Francis Ngannou, whom he knocked out in the second round of their world heavyweight boxing bout on Friday, Anthony Joshua has offered to fight WBC champion, Tyson Fury, even in his garden.
Everton paid for conceding two first-half penalties at Old Trafford as Manchester United bounced back to winning ways to keep their Champions League hopes for next season alive with a 2-0 victory on Saturday.
