Esther Ogechika Nworgu has clinched Nigeria's second medal at the ongoing Paralympics event holding in Paris, France.

Nworgu claimed silver at the Para Powerlifting event in the women's ~41kg event. The Nigerian lifted 106kg in her first attempt, then smashed the Paralympic Record set by Guo Lingling (109kg) at the Tokyo2020 Paralympics by lifting 112kg in her second attempt.

However, the Chinese Cui Zhe lifted 108kg and 113kg to eclipse that record in her first and second tries. Undaunted, Nworgu again set another Paralympic Record in her third attempt, lifting 118kg.

Zhe lifted 119kg to set a Paralympic Record and claim Gold, leaving the Nigerian, Nworgu for Silver and Bronze for Brazil's Lara Aparecida de Lima.

Recall that Mariam Eniola Bolaji won Nigeria's first medal in the parabadminton event.

One question:

Do Paralympics medals really count? If so, why is Nigeria rated among highest winners of medals? Until they stop this bias I won't take Olympics medals seriously.

That Chinese woman should have allowed her to win gold instead of following her bumper to bumper in breaking the record.

Nigerians doing their country proud.
And then there's the country impoverishing, harassing and killing Nigerians.

Our heroes past would be turning in their graves.
