Emmanuel Arinze Ifeajuna (1935 – 25 September 1967) was the first Black African to win a gold medal at an international sports event when he won at the 1954 British Empire and Commonwealth Games. His winning mark and personal best of 6 ft 8 in (2.03 m) was a games record and a British Empire record at the time.

I doubt if they will still remember him till date. Nigerians don't remember such people, instead they recognize irrelevant people (politicians) by naming them after our institutions

Mr Indomie generation, let us educate you a little.

There is a difference between the Empire Games (now Commonwealth Games) and the Olympics. Nojim Maiyegun is on record as having won the first Olympic medal for Nigeria. We did not win any more medals until Peter Konyegwachie won a silver in the featherweigh boxing division in the 1984 Olympic games, in a match where he clearly beat Meldrick Taylor but was robbed by the judges, who awarded it 5-0 to Taylor. The 1984 Los Angeles games boxing event was marred by several outrageous judging decisions to favour the American boxers, and Konyegwachie was sadly a victim. I personally watched that match when it was shown on NTA with Fabio Olanipekun of NTA doing most of the coverage of the games as the anchor. It was as a result of the boxing robberies of the 1984 games that the computer scoring system was used to replace the human judging system in the 1988 games till today.

Emmanuel Ifeajuna won a Commonwealth Gold for Nigeria in the 1954 Empire Games. Sadly, as one of the Majors who planned the 1966 coup, he has consistently been overlooked on the honours list. It is also noteworthy that Col Odimegwu Ojukwu had Ifeajuna, Victor Banjo and several others executed by firing squad on what looked like trumped up charges of treason against the government of Biafra in 1967.

That's a history lesson for you. So now you know about Maiyegun and Ifeajuna.
