One of Nigeria's medal hopefuls at the athletics event of the Rio 2016 olympics crashed out of the 100 metres event after placing 3rd in her Semi Final heat with a time of 11.09 seconds behind Jamaicas Elaine Thompson who ran 10.88 seconds and English Gardner of the United States who ran 10.90 seconds.

Ooooops one week later still no medal

Hmmm,the lady's form this day is not it. 11.09! No nooooo

Good news. We were never ready for Rio. I can't imagine the nation harping on and on over Blessing getting medals for the nation, even without any concrete support for her. This applies to other sportsmen and women who have endured hardship, neglect and total disregard in the years and months leading to Rio. We should just forget sports and focus on nollywood and music, that is where our interest lies.

Is it possible for one to come third in a semi-final race an couldn't qualify for the finals?

Exactly I don't know why we keep wasting our money....

As for the athletes, they are free to go claim other countries citizenship... At least no be today people dey so am

Our athletes were ill prepared for the Olympic games, no thanks to the AFN and Ministry of sports...

For the second time i'll say this here, that Solomon Dalung is a misfit, he has no clue whatsoever as to what he's doing.

That sports ministry needs restructuring.

Oga e be like sey na only you get hope for that old cargo!!!!! Cause as I dey so, I cross my balls and am expecting nothing! Not even the sack of the minister of United state of Nigeria!

Person wey nor fit win wey she dey single na now wey she don marry nai she wan take win?

As expected.....LOCAL CHAMPION

At the last Olympics, she blamed witches for her loss. Honestly, Nigeria should stop taking anyone that has not ran within 9 to 10seconds consecutively to any 100m event. If you are not running ess than 10 seconds, you have no business at the olympics because you won't win any medal. Kudos to her though because it is not easy.

abeg make una free this gal na
she used to perfomvery well wen she was not married.
now shez married its not eazy.
u think its eazy when her hubby bleep her front and back... back to back.
atleast every night guy man must knack.
unlike most of the gals she competes with who are single gals who dont value marriage.. and dont bleep daily except wen they feel like.

Meanwhile, Jamaica’s Elaine Thompson, 24, stunned fans to race to gold in the women’s 100m finals, clocking an impressive time of 10.71seconds to dash teammate Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce’s dream of becoming the first ever woman to win three consecutive 100m titles at the Olympics.
