Which kain igbinedion mentality you come de bring come na? The Nigerian suffer de cloud your reasoning. The best thing you can do is to make your staff comfortable so as to get the best from them. Plus the US is known for making their citizens comfortable which is why they are among the top nations winning medals in every single Olympics held to date. Meanwhile, if Nigeria see one gold na miracle.
my brother u no lie at all

Then the plight of the Nigerian Olympic team guarantees gold, abi? Even if it doesn't guarantee the Americans gold, it puts dem in the right frame of mind to go and perform to the best of their abilities. If one can't be comfortable when representing his/her country, then wot's the essence, or wld u rather they feel inconvenienced and have reasons not to perform? Now tell me who no go like represent America?

Lol. Shut ya gob and stop posting useless racist history that was built on the backs of millions of black people who were dehumanised and worked as slaves for centuries, without being paid a dime.

And the US neither provided the facility for them nor does the US pays them a dime for competing at the olympics, hence a lot of the stars dropped out and Dwayne Wade actually made a complaint about it before the last olympics in 2012. They play at the olympics for free.

This facility was provided for them by Cisco and it had nothing to do with the US government. They used their star power as the leverage for the endorsement. And I think it is cos of the zika virus and the fact that they all have great careers to return to.

Nooo, you shut ur own gob. Who sold those slaves back then? No be ur fellow black man? Abi dat one no worse pass racism? How many modern day slaves in the form of house boy and house girl do we still have in this excuse of a country? Atleast the US created an enabling environment despite the slavery and racism where true talented black athletes can attract endorsements or even afford to be comfortable while representing their countries. How has our country Nigeria ever encouraged talented youths or created and enabling environment where they can afford comfort while representing their country?

What does this have to do with the 'black man and his mentality' when Rio is one of the most dangerous cities on earth?

What is the black man's mentality and how does it work in this instance where some of the administrators are white?
rip favalas are as dangerous as ajegunle and queens in new York, if you guys av not stepped out of Nigeria please hush it, the place in rio they are is just like saying you fortified your self in park view lagos because of mushin story, the purpose of the game is to bond with others, Olympic is more of a game festival not to exclude yourself, most of these players in less than 20years from now will be broke ass, meanwhile there counterparts in other sports that are white will still be well off amd they didn't bring a yatch to the games.
