Buhari Must Be Praised For The Glorious Rise of Nigerian Athletics


The last month or so has seen Team Nigeria gather an unprecedented haul of medals, including numerous gold medals, and achieve the shattering of WORLD RECORDS, AFRICAN RECORDS, COMMONWEALTH RECORDS, at every turn.

Today was another such day.

Our Womens' 100 metres relay team destroyed a star-studded track to win gold at the Commonwealth games in Birmingham, in addition to another gold medal won by Tobi Amusan in the 100 metre hurdles.

Another gold medal just came in in the womens long jump.

Our men have fared better than in recent years, winning numerous silver and bronze medals in boxing, wrestling, weightlifting, table tennis, and athletics.

As at today, TEAM NIGERIA have won 13 gold medals, 9 silver, and 14 bronze at the Commonwealth games in Birmingham.

THIS IS UNPRECEDENTED.

So what accounts for this success?

GOVT SUPPORT.

The FG has given maximum support to Team Nigeria.

Right from Oregon, where, in addition to their usual allowances, a million dollars cash bonus was shared among the team, with Tobi Amusan receiving 20,000 dollars cash, to Birmingham, where all monies have been paid, to back in Nigeria where training facilities were upgraded and funded, there has been a SEA CHANGE in the govt approach to Nigerian sports, from what occurred in the past.

THE RESULT?

WHAT YOU ARE SEEING TODAY, AS OUR SPORTSMEN AND WOMEN BRING GLORY TO THEIR FATHERLAND.

President Buhari deserves praise for this success, because nothing gets done in sports without the full backing and support of the FG.

Federal Govt Rewards Team Nigeria Medallists, Coaches With $25,000 In Birmingham

The Federal Government has rewarded Team Nigeria Athletes who won medals at the ongoing Commonwealth Games in Birmingham and their coaches with $25,000 cash.

The Honourable Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Mr Sunday Dare while making the presentation to the Athletes and Coaches at Hilton Garden, Birmingham yesterday, stated that the reward was one of the proactive measures put in place by the Ministry and President Muhammadu Buhari’s Administration in particular, to boost their morale.

Represented by the Director, Federations, Elites and Athletes Department of the Ministry (FEAD) and Chef De Mission, Dr Simon Ebhojiaye, Dare said that the athletes and coaches were being rewarded for bringing glory to their fatherland.

He assured of government’s continued commitment to the development of sports in Nigeria. This in addition he said, was one of the reasons for the establishment of Parasports Department in the Ministry to further provide an opportunity for people with disabilities to also strive and excel in the field of sports.

The Minister expressed optimism that with the calibre of Athletes, Coaches, Officials and Technical crew Nigeria is having in Birmingham and their level of commitment and patriotism, the country is no doubt set to record more podium performances at the games.

He urged them to remain focused, determined and more committed so as to ensure that Nigeria remains among the topmost countries in the world of sports.

Speaking earlier, the 59kg Women’s Weightlifting Gold medalist, Folashade Lawal, on behalf of the medalists and coaches expressed their appreciation over government’s proactiveness, assuring that the reward will spur the athletes into winning more medals for the country.

She attributed the successes recorded so far to the glory of God, team work, discipline, hard work as well as government support to sports development in the country.

At the ceremony, the gold medal winners, Adijat Adenike Olarinoye and Rafiatu Folashade Lawal, received $5,000 each, silver medalist, Taiwo Laidi got $3,000; bronze medallists Edidiong Joseph Umaofia and Islamiyat Yusuf got $2,000 while their coaches were also given $3,000 respectively.

Amusan, Brume, 12 Others Beneficiaries of NOC Scholarship Grants, Says Gumel

The President of the Nigeria Olympic Committee (NOC), Habu Gumel, yesterday revealed that the two Nigerian athletes who excelled at the just concluded World Athletics Championships, Tobi Amusan and Ese Brume, were on the sponsorship of the Olympic body.

Gumel noted that the NOC, as an organ of the Federal Government, placed Amusan and Ese on a scholarship programme since 2018 with annual stipends paid to them till date.

Working in concert with the Federal Ministry of Youth & Sports and the Athletics Federation of Nigeria (AFN), the NOC president further hinted that the duo of Amusan and Brume are among the 14 Nigerian athletes that have continued to receive NOC support till Paris 2024 Olympics.

According to Gumel, the scholarship fund is from the IOC Solidarity Fund secured by the NOC.

“We have 14 of our notable Grade A athletes on this scheme and we have never failed to give them their training and school grants.

Gumel stressed that these athletes need to pay for all their coaches and other support staff like chiropractors, physiotherapists, etc so that they can stay in top shape. “This is why grants are essential for athletes,” Gumel stressed.

In addition, the Minister of Sports, Sunday Dare, came up with the Adopt-an-Athlete initiative in which the Delta State Government adopted Brume while Ogun State adopted Amusan.

It is believed that each of Amusan and Ese received about $36,000 in recent times apart from what they enjoy as adopted athletes of Ogun and Delta states.

They have also collected monthly upkeep money since January till date. These are facts but we don’t need to put this information in the public space, but it is important to note that the AFN, NOC and the FG are working round the clock to boost the fortunes of the country’s athletes who are our ambassadors,” concludes Gumel.

The difference between ipob terrorists, and traitors,

The Nigerian athletes are Nigeria and they know all about our challenges, but there are still representing their country, doing the best, performing on the global stage and happy to wrap the Nigerian flag around them.

They are doing their best regardless, but not lazy and incompetent village Igbos.
