We had similar experience in London 2012 Olympics when Jonathan was the president.

We finished with no medal.

Our best experience was 1996 when we finished with 2 golds, 2 silver and 3 bronze

We have not won Olympic gold medal since 2000.

It has been down hill from there.

Tobi Amusan has made two finals at the Olympics

She did in 2016 and 2021(2020)

But she failed to make the final when she is a world champion and world record holder.

This will be very difficult for her than for anyone.

People around her need to look after her metal health.

No investment in sports despite having a population of more than 200 million people who are not zombies.
It's a shame that one person from a country with a population of more than 200 million cannot get just a single medal in any event at the Olympics. And yet we will beat chest and make noise up and down that we are giant of Africa.

It's better we just call ourselves giant of BBnaija Africa where we take pride taking part, supporting and watching nonsense.

Maybe we should scrap the ministry of sport and merge it with the ministry of power or ministry of interior abi naaa exterior. Cos those are the only working ministries in Nigeria.

Let’s not blame our athletes. The level of motivation is very low from the sports ministry and the government. How do you explain sending a cycling athlete to an Olympics without a bicycle and nobody has been held responsible for this terrible actions. The athletes most times go just have to motivate themselves. The system has failed Nigerians, the government have failed Nigerians. The irresponsibility of the system and the government has impacted on every sector

We were all banking on her as our last hope for a medal.
How can a country of over 200million people return from an Olympic that's held once in every four years with nothing?

It has been down hill from there.
The semi-finals will hold on Friday, August 9, while the final is slated for the penultimate day of the athletics event, Saturday, August 10, 2024.

The 27-year-old has been in great form in the run-up to the sports fiesta, running a season’s best and then world lead of 12.40s (0.9) at the Jamaican Athletics Invitational in Kingston in May.

Before then, she had set the indoor record for the African 60m hurdles twice in January and February.


In March, she won her third consecutive African Games title in Ghana, plus anchoring the women’s 4x100m to gold in Accra as well as the African Championships in Cameroon three months later.

This season, she has competed in 17 events, which include the 60m, 100m, 100m hurdles, and the 4x100m relay.

Amusan, a three-time (consecutive) Diamond League winner, two-time Commonwealth Games gold medallist, two-time African champion, and three-time African Games gold medallist, has participated in two Olympic Games (Rio 2016 and Tokyo 2020).

Tobi will make the cut
But she’d be on a strange lane maybe 9 or 1
There are only 2 semi finals
She will not win a medal if she’s always starting slow
