While congratulating Yagu for her great achievement, ACA vice president Boli Yorme appealed to the department of sports and state government to provide necessary aid to the sportsperson as per the norms.
“Yagu has created history by winning 6 medals at national level in cycling,” said Yorme, adding that ACA will be giving all possible training to her, so that she can excel in upcoming 2028 and 2032 Olympics.
Exhorting young players of the state to draw inspiration from Yagu, who won medals at national level without any coaching/training, he further advised her to focus on the training which would be provided by ACA.
