A Benefactor Is Flying To Rio To Hand $200,000 Bonus To The Nigerianolympicteam by Koolking(m): 5:12pm On Aug 17, 2016
Moderator, please move to frontpage for Nigerians to see that Non Nigerians have not given up on Nigerians, therefore we should not give up on 'us' as Nigerians.

A benefactor is flying to Rio to hand $200,000 (£153,500) to the Nigerian Olympic team, in addition to his promise to pay a $30,000 (£23,000) bonus to each player if they win gold.

Japanese plastic surgeon Katsuya Takasu wants to reward the team after hearing about their financial difficulties.

He will pay them $20,000 (£15,350) for silver and $10,000 (£7,680) for bronze.

Takasu told BBC Sport the $200,000 "is a special donation" and "it is better to deliver it to the team personally".

He added: I've made previous donations to a Japanese hockey team and other notable causes in the past but this right now with Nigeria is incredibly passionate for me.

"I am deeply determined to motivate this indomitable and strong Nigerian team. I don't want to distract them but to push them further to their target - the gold in Brazil.

I was hugely disappointed by our performance against the Germans last night.

Team Nigeria will still part with $10,000 each for bronze.
