Reminds me of that old movie Cool Running about the Jamaican Bobsleigh team at the Winter Olympics.

Notice how any major global achievement by Nigeria (whether positive or negative) always has a Southern name attached to it 99% of the time?

nengibo:

Which Nigerians , translate that thing jor

UbanmeUdie:




Wow!


This is fantastic not because Nigeria qualified for this particular sport at the Olympics in 2018, but because it reminds me of the 1993 movie "Running Cool"


The Jamaican bobsled team!


Very inspiring.


BTW, Nigeria is bound to fail in woefully in this very sport at the onlympics. So I won't waste my excitement on them.

So the truth hurts you and you are hungry for lies, eh? Very well then. I suggest you frequent the Islam for Muslims section of NL. You'll find enough lies in that section to fulfil your abnormal appetite.

And please stay off my mentions, or at least upgrade your written English before responding to my posts next time. I nearly suffered a stroke from trying to decipher the gibberish you wrote.

Nigeria will be represented at the Winter Olympics for the first time ever, after their women's team qualified for the bobsled event at the 2018 Winter Games in PyeongChang.

Driver Seun Adigun and brakemen Ngozi Onwumere and Akuoma Omeoga completed the fifth of their required five qualifying races on Wednesday, becoming the first African team, men or women, to qualify in the Bobsled category.

In women's bobsled, teams are required to complete five races to qualify. The Nigeria team, led by driver Adigun - a former African 100m hurdles champion and 2012 summer Olympian - completed races in Utah, one in Whistler, and their final two races in Calgary on Tuesday and Wednesday.

"This is a huge milestone for sports in Nigeria," driver Adigun told KweséESPN. "Nothing makes me prouder than to know that I can play a small role in creating opportunities for winter sports to take place in Nigeria.

"Our objective now is to be the best representation of Africa that the Winter Olympics have ever witnessed."


Solomon Ogba, President of the Bobsled and Skeleton Federation of Nigeria, was understandably thrilled at the achievement, saying via a media statement: "I commend the personal dedication and commitment of these women.

"Their hard work was inspiring and I hope Nigerians can appreciate what it took for them to achieve this - the work, the discipline, and the personal sacrifices. They were amazing throughout this journey.

"They are all very successful people in their own right - in sports and out of it, and somehow they are still motivated and still push for more success.

"I have watched them train and work hard to represent Nigeria at the Winter Olympics in a very technical and high risk sport and they have achieved that. They should be very proud, and I am very proud of them."

Nigeria could yet secure another spot at the Games, with driver Simidele Adeagbo just two races away from qualifying for the Skeleton competition.

Im not surprised you almost got a stroke cos thats what you get when your life is full of hate you don't see anything good in anybody even your own country you better don't die early and take a chill pill non of your angry replies can give me stroke you just make me laff at your ignorance. You live your life faraway from reality in self deciet thats y when a person doesnt not agree with your self acclaimed truth you try to put that person down with the inferiority complex you are battling within yourself thank goodness for cyberspace if not people like won't even be able to move close to me by a hundred meters cos you will be beaten blue black by my body guards.wasted mind.inferior minds like you only spew trash.the truth is that you're not in my league.stop fooling around.moronic anti Islamic crusader

TheLogicalMind:


I'm guessing that the 77 in your moniker indicates your date of birth (1977). If so, please accept my condolences. If at the age of 40 you're still too stupid to understand how the world works then your problems are bigger than mine.

You even tried to mask your ignorance through cheap insults because you are too dim to know that the more you insult me, the more you diminish yourself.

Please try and fill the gaping hole between your ears with something more beneficial than gossip and sentiment.

Stop begging me to like you and your kind and stop throwing childish tantrums when I treat you as you deserve to be treated.

Perhaps it is really true that a fool at forty is a fool forever. Your life is a living testament to that adage.

goldman777:


GUY your a complete ignoramus you live your life like a guessing game.i don't need make a guess to know ur a heavy slowpoke. your level of stupidity is astonishing

TheLogicalMind:


You've already spent the first 40 years of your life as a fool. Don't waste the rest of it arguing with your intellectual superior.
