Dude!! I am still upset! We are nothing but a bonus for Australians and The New Zealanders. It’s such a shame! I also bought a ticket to watch the female boxing and it was nothing but a disappointment. Imagine Nigeria bringing an 18 yo inexperienced boxer to fight a 33 yo Australian boxer with track records. Shittt I had the Nigerian flag in my pocket all through - what a shame. Only the table tennis team made us proud and earned us the first silver medal alongside Chukwuebuka who also earned us a silver medal in the men shot put. I would love to meet that dude!!

Thank God our Para weight lifters earned us Gold and Silver in a row.

You see those basket ball team need to be ashamed of themselves - bunch of losers. They are not good at all! All my kiwi friends have laughed me tire! They have the perfect physique but have zero skills. I personally know some street basket ballers in Nigeria that would easily defeat New Zealand. Go to Mile 2, pick stars and train them. Allowing these big for nothing to represent us is a national disgrace. I love Nigeria
the people you see there are those who can afford to bribe... The real players can't dream of going there... That's our Nigeria smiley

NBA season is still on, you don't expect the teams to release their players to go play for the Commonwealth medal. No be Premier League

the solo sports that do not need sporting federation to prepare

Only the table tennis team made me proud and of course the weightlifters.

I knew our preparation was not enough. That red berret wearing dullard of our sports minister has nothing to offer so I didn't expect anything except the unexpected from Team Nigeria.

That's what happen when politics takes over(even in sports), it's heartbreaking.

then the sports men better learn how to play the politics


I play volleyball and when I look at players at the national level, I weep for Nigeria. These are players who can't even stand close to ordinary state players in most northern states.
They're all bark and no bite, they go to other African countries and are thrashed 3-0 straight on major count, with minor count under 15. Jesus Christ. It's disheartening.
no it isn't
if it wer,you'd do something about it

Our basketball team that represented Nigeria in the last two WAFU competition is not a pushover but I think the boyz were not well treated n most of them declined playing for Nigeria this time around. But 3 loss at group stage is way too bad for the D'tigress

All I'll say is 'its easier said than don't. You think it's easy to just get up and make national team? If it were that easy we wouldn't be having people we have in power today ruining the country.
