TOP long distance runner Jobo Khatoane’s Olympic dream has been shattered after he was withdrawn from the recently announced provisional squad for the Tokyo games.
Khatoane was ejected from the team for failing to show-up for the 2019 Africa Games in Rabat, Morocco despite pocketing allowances for the trip.
The Olympics will be held in July and August this year after being postponed last year on the back of the Covid-19 pandemic.
It is alleged that Khatoane pocketed M25 000 in trip allowances but failed to show up to travel with the team.

FAL fights take new twist
Leemisa Thuseho
DISPUTE in the Federation of Athletics Lesotho (FAL) seem to be far from over after the organisation failed to hold its special annual general meeting (AGM) last Saturday.
This after Qacha’s Nek district was allegedly accused failing to pay its 2020 affiliation fees and barred from participating in last weekend’s meeting and also the forthcoming elections.
The meeting was then suspended as the executive committee was yet to verify whether or not Qacha’s Nek had the right to participate in federation’s meetings.
FAL public relations officer, Sejanamane Maphathe confirmed that they were forced to suspend the meeting after other districts’ members raised concern over Qacha’s Nek’s alleged ineligibility.
