I have to agree but it can go either way. The US although still an experiment have harnessed their diversity for success. It’s only a matter of time, we’ll see if this will last especially if the liberals dominate

It will collapse and its already showing signs of collapse. No historical precedence for the success of a diverse nation. Look to Rome the archetypical example of how diversity combines with other causes to dissolve a nation.

What makes diversity a poison in this our age is that it has become weaponized and is a shield for something very sinister which the future will unfold. I will not go further make we no derail the thread.

Wow! Great! Lawal could have won today if her last lift wasn't cancelled!

Jamaica doesn't have more resources than Nigeria they are just more strategic plus they have sport administrators (read athletics) who're for the most part patriotic and competent.

Directly to your question can't we gather our athletics brains and former athletes like Onyali, Enobong, Chioma Ajunwa, Segun Odegbami and the guy who runs Making of Champions to brainstorm and come up with a plan? Cos this lazy approach of sending our best athletes to US to develop isn't yielding long term benefits.

If countries like Cuba and Jamaica can do it then we have no excuse..

This is where the failure begins from. Planning and execution is our bane. If we plan, we fail to execute, if we execute, we fail to sustain.

No medal for our Brume!!

Ruth Ogbeifo should have won gold. But body weight rule went against her, after lifting the same weight with her opponent. Winner was settled using bodyweight rule which went against her

Making of Champion is actually in charge of getting our athletes scholarship abroad which has produced Ogazi, Ella, Ofili, Nathaniel, Ase, Brume, Ajayi, Best, Yetunde and many others performing well across various US Universities.

The moment in time quota system was introduced into everything was d moment Nigeria died.
Now my question. Did we really grow during the regional government?? If yes, why can't the nation give it a try again.

In a regional government system some regions will prosper and grow faster than others and some Nigerians out of envy for those regions don't want that to be the case and will begin to accuse the regions growing fast of corruption...

it was what indirectly led to the civil war...

false accusations of corruption against Nigeria by the likes of Ojukwu, ironsi e.t.c. which also was indirectly false accusations against the prospering region ( at the time was western Nigeria ).. especially after the broadcast of Ahmadu Bello saying he will rather hire foreigners than hire i:gbos because i:gbos had most of the federal jobs in the north due to the brit:ish giving the jobs to i:gbos whom they favored before independence so after independence most non-i:gbos assumed the i:gbos will do the right thing and give the jobs back to the indigenes but the i:gbos didn't do that and even in western Nigerian Ladoke Akintola also released a broadcast complaining about i:gbos keeping all the lecturing jobs in U.I and that Y:orubas were only doing the jobs of cleaners, gardeners...

so weeks or months after the broadcasts, the 1966 coup happened and both Ahmadu Bello and Akintola were killed by the coup plotters..

Regional government can never ever be tried again because after the abolishment of regionalism by ironsi and after the civil war Gowon said " Nigeria has too much money and they did not know what to do with it " please note Gowon didn't say this before 1966 because he said it after 1970.. which means what he truly meant was that "Southern Nigeria has too much money and now that the North is in control the north did not know what to do with it".

NNPC was created in 1977.... the coup that the Igbos did, happened in 1966 and If they didn't abolish regionalism it will mean its Eastern Nigeria Petroleum Company that would have been created and it would have meant that Eastern Nigeria controlled at least 80% of Nigeria's revenue and wealth. which means more jobs, infrastructure, social benefits, healthcare for the eastern region...

but the Igbos were too short-sighted and jealous of the western region been ahead financially not knowing they were about to be extremely wealthy in the coming years due to oil boom and therefore destroyed a regional system that would have made the eastern region the richest region in Nigeria and probably whole of Africa with no other region coming close..

lol! THE WITCH JOR!

I spoke with my relative in London yesterday asking him about the riots and hoping he was fine. He told me that most of those riots were happening in the poorest and most uneducated places in the UK and his county was completely safe. Think about that.

In which offices were the Igbo keeping those jobs in the North and West and what could Old Eastern region possibly be jealous of about the old Western region? What was the accusations from Ojukwu and Ironsi and what made them false? It is called Igbo coup because the plotters are Western Igbos from Anioma, but you and your fellow nitwits have been all over the internet crying because Ned Nwoko proposed an Anioma State which will have the whole Igbos of Delta State and Igbanke(Igbos of Edo State) joined to the East.
