Africa our Africa,

Especially The so called GIANT OF AFRICA 🌍 πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬.

What a Shame.

See young talents wasting away in Trenches all over our darling nation ,
(Many Gold medalist material/talents in boxing, swimming, soccer etc....)
and those ones will sit in their offices at Abuja living large, wearing agbada and misappropriating billions.

One day we will get to the nation of our dreams,
a land flowing with milk and honey , and some sides of Barbecue πŸ˜‹.

God help Africa.
God bless Nigeria πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬

As at Today 7th of August 2024, Africa is the only Continent not represented amongst the Top 30 best performance so far.

In fact the best performing African country so far is Kenya at No. 33 with 4 medals, 1 gold 1 silver and 2 bronze.

Yet we have African athletes who nationalized and have won medals for their countries.
Africa is the bedrock of talent but not always utilized to the full potential. What is the problem really? Government, laziness or lack of adequate preparedness or what? Africa's performance so far is too poor.

MY apologies, but this is nonsense. If it was true, how come some countries with enough religious people do well, while Austria, a country with not much religion, has not won any summer olympic medal in decades?

The simple reason why we do not do well at olympics is quite simply money.

You need money to pay for sporting equipment, compettions, travel money for compettions, school sports, etc etc. Most African countries don't have the budget to pay for that.

Our sports budget looks like a lot, until you realize that the budget for football in Spain is about 20-30 times that.

It does not matter who we vote, we still need more money, and you cannot get olympic medals galore from a sports budget before looting woth 30 million dollars. When some countries spend billions and see results of five medals.

The thing is, even our leadership issues come from trying to give everyone free stuff on a budget that cannot sustain such a large population as we have. Yes, that is why tinubu's government is useless. But since the solution that would make us earn more money is something you don't want, you promplty blame religion.

Oga, either you set up a means by which young people can compete in sports, or run for office, or just keep quiet. Even if we elimate religion tomorrow and vote for qualified people....we cannot do anything with just 22 m dollars for sports. Or zero schools sports, zero coaching training, universities that have no money for topline sport facilites, and are making do with 1960's equipment, and so forth.
