“It’s a big event for the whole village.” I know Abdulmanap personally, he was friends with my father, they trained and coached together. He was like a father to everyone. He was a good-natured person who only emphasized what was right and instilled discipline. A man of strong spirit.
— What is now written on the sign at the entrance: still Kirovaul or already Manapkala?
– Still Kirovaul. Just yesterday they issued an order. There will now be other procedures to complete. Now everything will go to Rosregistration. When all procedures are completed, the signs will then be modified. I can’t tell you exactly how long it will take: two weeks, maybe a month. We are waiting ourselves.
— Should we do it before the end of the year?
– We hope to arrive in time. The central administration of Kizilyurt district, as well as the local administration, must do this. There is already a project there. There will be an arch at the entrance to the village. And the signs should be changed,” Sheikhov told .
Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov is the father of former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov. During his career, he trained 18 world combat sambo champions.
