Disappointing but not new, corruption has dealt a heavy blow to Nigeria, that we can't even get even the simpliest of things right, the sports administration will then come with the blame game and an excuse for their failure, and then everyone goes home, and then it repeats itself, nobody pays for nothing, nobody is held accountable.
They asked her for money for testing, when the govt was said to have made provision for same money, just imagine. Corruption in our sports is too much kai! No matter how good you are, if you don't bribe, they'd not enlist you. Ofili had to choose her words carefully so she doesn't become a sprinter of yesterday. You see why many of them don't like representing Nigeria?

Have you wondered why they always go for foreign players even though some of them can't do better than local players? We seriously yearn for a good leader who will undo all these nonsense.

Because we always reward failure in this country such embarrassments are bound to always happen.

I doubt if heads rolled in 2020 Tokyo Olympics when they shamefully made 14 of our medals 🏅 prospects withdrawn due to the incompetence of the NOC and Athletics Federation of Nigeria 🇳🇬. They keep showing their incompetence without any sanctions or consequences.

This is what you see everywhere in government and we expect the country to move forward

May be they believe you will refuse to be dressed like a Muslim representing Nigeria in Paris. Western sports and education have become Haram in Nigeria.
Islamists are in control of Nigeria plotting for Talibanization of Nigeria using government institutions.

Why badluck no go dey follow una??

Instead of una to wear Isi Agu (Lion head Attire) to show Olympics that We Are LIONS!!!
There is a reason England flag has 3 lions
Lion is a symbol of authority

Instead
The una go wear one Green Yoruba attire that looks like rag lipsrsealed lipsrsealed

Since they decided to wear rags to Olympics.
The Olympics committee has every right to treat Nigerian Athletes likeTrash..
One bad news to the other for Nigerian Athletes.

If they wore isi agu attire
The momentum and morale would have propelled us to win multiple gold.
But NO, they decided to wear Rags
you are a big fool for the gibberish you wrote up there. Some of the Olympic athletes wore isi agwu the earlier you realize that you being presided by the Yoruba man you so much hate the earlier your sanity of you and your generations comes back

Nothing for her in the women's 100m or 200m.....We have;
1. Marie Jose Talou from Ivory Coast, Won 100m Gold, and 200M Gold in Asaba 2018 African Athletic Championship.
2. Shelly-Ann from Jamaican 13 times World Champion and 8 times Olympic Gold Medalist.
3. Sha'carri Richardson from the United States of America, She's the current 100 World Champion.
4. Sherika Jackson from Jamaica, current 200m World Champion, 2nd fastest woman in history, 4 times World Champion, and 6 times Olympic Gold Medalist.
5. Gaby Thomas from the United States of America, Tokyo Silver Medalist, Budapest 2023 Silver Medalist, and current favorite 200m.
My Dear Favour Ofili, pls reconcile with your brother who is the current Athletic Federation of Nigeria President From Agbor in Delta state, Who is also the former Delta State Football President Mr. Tony Okowa..Nobody should pls bring tribalism here. The Only World class track and field Athlete we have is Oluwatobi Amusan, who is the current World 110m hurdles Champion, and also the World 110 Record holder. #TobiExpress

Poor girl, sports administration can only work if the private sector gets involved, tomorrow if they see her running for another country they will say she is not patriotic.

I think her coming from the eastside also worked against her, we need to banish ethnicity from our sports, if she were from the west she wont have these problems, but then her people from the east especially the billionaires should help, offcourse they wont .

It was meant to be. She put in the work and diligence to get there.

She's a victim of other people's failures if we are to go by the message in the op.

It's easy to say take heart until you put yourself in the top 1% in the world In a particular discipline through years of hard work and sacrifices and one fellow makes you to look like you have been playing in the mud with babies.

She should accept fate and move on!
Life goes on!

It's not meant to be, at least for now!

BS! How you've normalized mediocrity and incompetence. Wouldn't be surprised if you also are against the looming protest, saying the government should be given more time.
Mediocrity and incompetence is just a means! Of course i do not support protest in any form to my father/parents, my school authorities, my LG chairman, State Government or the FG! It doesn't matter whether the FG is presided by GEJ or Obi or BAT! Protest is a no no!

When Nigeria tragically happens to you or your loved, make sure to repeat your inept line. undecided

Nigeria is a country and it doesn't happen to anyone!

Pray Biafla happen to you then!

And the Yoruba will win more Medals in this competition. The reason why the United States of America are above all countries is because the shun anything tribalism, no doubt the Igbos are gifted, but the Yoruba's have proven time again that they have a lot to offer the world...And pls do well to show us and Igbo Athletes who dress in Yoruba Attire, You can force someone to wear your dress.
