Following the doping scandal that has hit the athletics world, the Minister of Youth and Sports Solomon Dalung, yesterday, revealed that five of the nation’s athletes who represented her at the 2015 All Africa Games (AAG) in Brazzaville, Congo and three others who took part in the 2015 All Nigeria-AFN Championship in Warri, Delta State, have tested positive to banned substances.

Dalung said three of them tested positive after random tests were carried out at the AAG, while two others were from out-of-competition tests, especially during the AFN Championship in Warri.

Chinazom Amadi, Samsom Idiata (athletics), Elizabeth Onuah (weightlifting), Patience Opuene and Ebi James Igbadiwei (wrestling) were tested at the AAG, while Thomas Kure (para-powerlifting) and Sunday Ezeh (para-athletics) tested positive from out-of-competition tests. Deborah Odeyemi tested positive during an in-competition drug test at the AFN championship. All the affected athletes have been banned from competing, starting from August 16, 2015.

I am of the opinion that majority of our athletes are not properly informed on what to eat and what not to.

Various banned chemicals still find their way into our consumables and we take them unknowingly. Proper education needs to be given to our representative to prevent future ban.

As an expert in weedology, weeds gotten from Nigeria can make you an everlasting most high. Like If you get what I mean.

Seriously?

what's doping test please ?

Positive to Garri.

I am certain Nigerians don't take such enchantment drugs a that much.
Oyibo has no equipment to detect Garri particles.. So anything they don't know is suspicious.

All these athletes should be oriented as many of them will likely head a division of sport one day

maybe they inhaled from some guys smoking oshogbo weed
