So their names be shown on the medals table instead of their countries?
Or not shown at all.....hmm

Not shown at all.

Never going to happen.

Aliko Dangote's great-grandfather, Al-Hassan Dantata, taught his children that they should never get involved in politics. He said that they should be friends with all authorities and resolve disputes quickly, but they should never get involved in politics.

Dangote has also said that he is not a politician and he has no desire to get involved in politics.

Perfect view of Team Nigeria from a bridge.

RaptorX:
I think Russia is banned from participating because of the Ukrainian invasion.

Russia is banned, but Russian athletes will be able to compete as individual neutral athletes (athletes individual neutral [AIN] in French). This is the 4th Olympics in a row where this has been the case (if you include Winter Olympics).

Russia was initially banned for doping reasons.

This means that Russian athletes will compete as independents, Russia will not be on the medals table and the Russian National Anthem will not be played. Russian officials will also not be able to attend certain conferences, meetings and events.

KERMIT ỌMỌ YORÙBÁ @Saint_kermit

This dude @Emeneks has this things to say about yoruba people. Yet stupid yoruba producers keeps giving him roles and jobs meant for yoruba people while he denigrates their culture with so much joy on his face.

They denigrate you with so much joy but a fool like you will gibe oit post meant for yorubas to people whom your existence angers them. You all will learn the hard way.

Saheed Opeyemi @shidof87

This stupidly tribalistic boy again, I know that a day like this will come but @Emeneks was myopic & immature to see it. Can we assume that @Chivitajuices are in support of all Emeka bigotry tweets & insults against other tribes especially against his host people, the Yorubas

Ayobami @dondekojo

Nobody is writing to Chivita that their new ambassador basically said an entire ethnic group have body odour and bad breath btw. Congratulations. As it should be. It’s the lack of consistency that makes me not take emergency activists seriously

If Toyin Abraham gets any endorsement, then it’s letters everywhere, without even denigrating an entire ethnic group. Why should people not go back into trench warfare with this sort of inconsistent behavior. You people don’t want to tell yourselves the truth and that’s fine.

Just realized the idiot @Emeneks tried to double down after deleting the tweet and the trail.

Emeka Nwagbaraocha is an actor who has acted in MTV Shuga and nollywood movies. He was recently signed as a brand ambassador by Chivita (who sponsored his trip to Port-Harcourt).

However, people on social media have highlighted derogatory posts that Emeka Nwagbaraocha made about the Yoruba ethnic group and they have called on Chivita to take action against him.

Ayobamidele~praise @Ayobamidelepra1

Chivita @Chivita_Active, a leading fruit juice company in Nigeria, has been enjoyed by people of all tribes and skin colors worldwide. However, we are concerned about the recent actions of one of your brand ambassadors, who made derogatory comments about the Yoruba people.

We urge Chivita to conduct thorough background checks on their ambassador @Emeneks to ensure he align with the company's values. This incident raises questions about whether Chivita values the patronage of Yoruba customers.

We demand an official statement from Chivita clarifying their stance on this matter or an immediate apology from the ambassador to the Yoruba people. We look forward to a prompt response."

The reason I advised that you should contact these people is that they've got lawyers, psychological counsellors and other professionals that are needed to tackle this case. They are backed by the Lagos State Government and they know how to make the police do their work. They can also provide shelter for the woman and the child if the need arises. They are your best bet.
