I am proud of all the athletes representing Nigeria, words can't express my joy for them. Nigeria is 7th on the Medal table ahead of USA for 9th position. You can always follow the link for latest updates http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/disability-sport/19083815

I expected us to do well in Paralympics, reason being that sports administrators cannot play politics with it. its difficult to enlist their brothers and cousins. Well done to all the men and women showing ability in disability.

Oga, in this century the word is "disable" not cripple. The comment is in poor taste whichever way.

What did the "ables" do? I think you should say "what the ables can NOT do, the disabled are doing brilliantly."

The Abled athletes must be watching this and wishing they were disabled since the disabled ones are now the ones making us proud. What an Abled Naija athlete cannot do, a Disabled Naija athlete can do ten folds. Up Nigeria.

Maybe we should jst stop going to the main Olympic, so we can concentrate on this paralympics, that way we would stop wasting money.... Or they should jst merge the thing together becos of Nigeria, so we will stop coming first frm bottom...

I think Nigeria should just retire from the Olympics and concentrate on the para-Olympics, think about, its hard enough being disabled, but to be disabled and also win a gold medal is no mean feat. Congrats to the athletes!
