Zero medals for Nigeria. She was the only hope we had left in the Olympics.

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.
ok the gold medal won by kanu and chioma ajunwa

No investment in sports despite having a population of more than 200 million people who are not zombies.
It's a shame than 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 that we giant of Africa.
It's better we just call ourselves giant of BBnaija Africa where we take pride taking part and watching nonsense.

Your points made sense. I just want you to know that poverty and corruption is the problem we face.

There are better sports men and women among the over 200 million people, who are not opportuned to be here because they don't have money to train themselves or bribe their way into the team itself.

Most people here are faced with how to survive first before taking up sporting activities. These patriotic representatives are those who are lucky but not the best we have.

National Football team - Zero

Olympic Team - Zero

Sports Sector - Zero



Since 2015, it's been from one retrogressive position to another!



Tobi Amusan will have to face reality, and switch nationality.
That might be the only hope she has of soaring in her chosen career.

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
That's true, she started slow..
She was the last to take off..

Nigeria does not invest in its athletes or sports. So, we are getting what we deserve.

Tobi amusan finishes third in 100m huddles, loses out on automatic qualification.

Nigeria's Tobi amusan has lost out on automatic qualification after finishing third in heat 1 of women's 100m hurdles semi-final in Paris on Friday, August 9.

The world record holder clocked 12.55s to come third and would now have to wait and hope she makes it as one of the best losers for a chance in the final .
Better than disgracing herself in the final. Motivation isn't enough, if you want it, you have to go harrrd for it. Her timing hasn't been encouraging from the heat

Nawao, what is happening to our athletes? See one of our hopefuls. Someone that I was expecting to win gold in this Olympic as she was once claimed to be the fastest woman in the world.

She tried. While others ran the hurdles track, she ran the track, she also ran against some Nigerians. Her hurdles were physical (track event) and spiritual (Nigerians filled with bitterness). Some Nigerians never prayed she wins. If she had won, they would have been shouting 'drug' or Juju.

I was surprised the speed at which the information hit nairaland frontpage. I had expected that. On Wednesday when she won the heat with a spectacular speed and it was reported on many online media. It was over 9 hours later it was reported on sports section of nairaland. I have monitored the sports section for 8 hours because I know such information may not be on frontpage.

As if it was planned, few minutes after the news appeared in the sports section, the first comment was an insult "Drug Cheat".

People don't really know the people they are dealing with. The earlier our people know they are seating on bomb and get prepared the better.

I had expected Awujale of Ijebu land to delegate at least Wasiu Ayinde and about 3 members of prominent Ijebu sons to the tournament for emotional support. You don't fight enemies with sophistication and liberality when they hate you with cruel hatred.

All the betta athletes have relocated to serious countries where the is no nepotism or hunger, where their art will get the highest backing.
Qatar don pack most of them Eg Salwa Eid Naser (Ebelechukwu Agbapuonwu), Femi Seun Ogunode and his brother, forget about Nigerians representing the US, UK etc, them bokun.
Na only the akamu athletes remain jare. Na holiday them go do for France.
