If Imo had converted some of their silver and bronze medals to gold, they would have been in the top 5. I also want to commend Ebonyi. They have done well coming second considering the fact that they're often looked down on by other SE states. Imagine them beating Anambra, Engugu and Abia.

You mean Ebonyi coming second among the eastern states!
Because Nationally they are 20th.

Even the state in the 35th position came out 1st if you are looking at the last two states on the medals table

You're right. I also remember the stadiums that were built by Ibori that were used to host the African women's nations cup. But i want to imagine that other states are also practicing just like Delta state but the gap is too much. One would even imagine that Lagos should be ahead of every state in these kinds of competitions but each time it's always Delta state.
you have a point but most of the athlete that represent detal state are Lagos based will all train together in the Stadium the reason most athlete play for other state is that they treat us well financially and Lagos don't use to pay,so that is d reason y.Lagos is still the best but money matter in all things

and if others converted theirs, imo may also still be competing at the middle of the table.

I was comparing the number of silver and bronze they won to the gold medals they won. I hate it when a team gets too many silver and gold that count for less. I'll rather have 20 gold, 0 silver and 0 bronze than have 1 gold, 9 silver and 10 bronze.

Of course i'm comparing them to other SE states.

I think the SE states didn't do well this year compared to how they did in previouss competitions. Imo especially used to fight alongside Delta, Edo, Lagos and Rivers.

which lagos state is the best?
They don't even have history as far as Naija sports is concerned.
Delta state has been producing legends in virtually all areas of Nigeria's sports since time immerorial.
The SS is far ahead of every other part of the country in sports.

The issue is not state of Origin but state of participation that has alway been the case as far as The NSF is concerned. Lagos has alway been the place where top athletes train. We know SE states have alway got good sprinters as far as state of Origin goes but they have often competed for other states.

Tolexander: You are a tribalist! All the south east states tried. At least, winner a medal is not an easy task let alone winning medals. Moreover, olympic is not to win but to participate.
Here is the southeast on the medals table:
11. Imo gold 7, silver 14, bronze 18
20. Ebonyi gold 3, silver 2, bronze 3
24. Abia gold 1, silver 6, bronze 13
25. Enugu gold 1, silver 5, bronze 8
30. Anambra gold 0, silver 2, bronze 3

how am i a tribalist for asking simple and direct question huh? undecided undecided
Re: Delta Crowned Winners Of Eko 2012 by vislabraye(m): 3:50pm On Dec 10, 2012
Up south-south. I sjouldnt be surprised because they produce some of the best athletes in the country.
Lagos came third because its a cosmopolitan state and has a very large population.
I'm sure Bayelsa dominated the swimming and wrestling.

well,that is also the reason why the US dominates the olympics.
They create the enabling environment for top class talents all over the world to be attracted to them.
The sports facilities,administration,renumerations,competitiveness,and motivation in delta state is world class.
This is the only aspect where uduaghan has excelled,even though he will still go to jail for looting the state's treasury.

You are a tribalistic buffoon and a disgrace to N/D where different people of different ethnic backgrounds are trying to get along.

No! Not as if anambra didn't win any gold, it is just that they didn't come first in any event.
But they won 2 gold medals in weight lifting in camerounian national festival.
