Nigeria’s Minister of Sports Development, Senator John Owan Enoh, has reached out to the father of Okpala Tanya, Nigeria’s former tennis sensation whose video went viral recently revealing the lamentable state of the one-time tennis champion.

The minister contacted Tanya’s father who briefed him on her current condition and the genesis of her problem. He also confirmed to the Sports minister that the Nigerian Tennis Federation paid for Tanya’s first rehabilitation many years ago when her condition became public knowledge but sadly the former tennis star relapsed after a short while.

Okpala Tanya was once a tennis player of repute who has played in a lot of tennis tournaments. She represented Nigeria and the African continent and won laurels. She was a tennis junior’s champion who played at the highest level and was ranked number one at the time.
