Paroman: [s]Mo.ron, the bulk of those won us gold at the last Commonwealth games are from the west. The first Nigerian to win us gold at 2012 Paralympics is a westerner, he even set a new world record. Bleeping bigot!Another dunce[/s].

puta,give us facts not emotional and bitter conjectures.....then we give you ours.

This is good news...come to think of it, whenever the president wants to waste our oil money, he should give athletics first thought, not that ball-pushing struggle we call 'soccer'.

"By their Comments, We shall know them"

bitterpenis:
Smh na GEJ lift the weight? Abi na he be her trainer?

Na GEJ dey throw bomb which you hypocrites blame him for?
Let's collectively ascribe Nigeria s good and bad to him

Keky: So it was GEJ that carried the weight? Why should we congratulate him? Smh

So it was GEJ who bombed Nyanya?

modestdude: can you pull weight with oily hands? Its a suicide mission. Pls don't instigate people to a suicide mission

It is not suicide as you might as well notice that oily foods from South west Nigeria are not sold in Glasgow...So,some people should be dry enough to pull their weight for the cause of our great nation,Nigeria.

Congratulation Opara

Commonwealth games is not Olympics joor. It sounds like a Grade 'C' movie, so am not interested.

It's only a step lower than the Olympics, but it's still a big deal to win an event ahead of competitors from 70 other countries

Gold for Nigeria in the female weightlifting category of 53kg by the amazing 16 year old Chika Amahala she also crushed the Games record....
