⏩▶️When it comes to talent & level
playing field, you can never, ever see
Ahrboki.

But when it comes to nepotistic political or
government appointment to sensitive
positions, na dem unqualified pipul full
everywhere.

❎That is why the country is sliding back
anywhere they are in charge, because
they really have nothing to offer.

❎See illiteracy, poverty & disease in their
region even as they are in 'charge'.

❎The last time we played a Muslim
Country in our last match in the African
Cup Of Nations, some Muslim Northerners
supported the Muslim nation to win
as they said there were no Muslims
in the Nigerian team.

Can you imagine❔❓

I really don't care because they wont bring anything back home.

Anyway, i appreciate them for participating.


Note: See how igbo people dominate everywhere, after they will claim that Nigeria hate them and don't want their success and their usual shout of marginalization.

Igbos are only there because they have the professional skills to play the games. For you to qualify for Olympics, you have to compete with other participants within your continental region. If you pick scrabs, then you won't qualify, and automatically no Olympics money for Nigerian sports federation or ministry or Olympic committee. So, this is more of some individuals using igbos professionals based abroad to claim they are working.

You should be ashamed of yourself!

OTHER COUNTRIES PROVIDE FACILITIES AND STARTS PREPARING THEIR SPORTS MEN YEARS BEFORE THE QUALIFICATION GAMES. HERE IN ZOOCAMP, THEY EMBEZZLE THE BUDGET FOR PREPARATIONS, AFTER WHICH THEY GO AND LOOK FOR READY MADE IN OTHER COUNTRIES TO COME AND REPRESENT!!!!

INFACT IF NOT FOR THE GLORY OF THE SPORTS MEN, I WOULD SAY THEY SHOULD GO AND FLOP, SO THE IDIOTS WILL ACCOUNT HOW THEY USED THE MONIES THEY RECEIVED AS BUDGET.

Anyway, the selection wasn't based on merit but because they were based abroad.

With the high participation of igbos, i don't see Nigeria winning any medal.

The last time we got a medal was in 1996....and that was a merit based and diverse team.

Since your people started participating because of mere availability, we have stopped winning medals.

I know you guys from that side of the country are not known for your intellect. I know you are not too bright, if you were remotely bright, you would understand that in the Olympics, there is a qualifying process that is only based on Merit, not by Nigeria singlehandedly but by the world organisation in charge of the respective sports. Athletics for instance, Buhari cannot just select someone to represent Nigeria at the Olympics, most of them will have to go through a qualifying round, in IAAs and the African equivalent.

Although, team sports might have a slightly different selection criteria but if you don't get your best players, you might not even qualify in the first place.

The mind is a terrible thing to waste.

Hehehe, mere availability? I guess the reason you are not part of them or available as you believe anyone can do better, is because the country doesn't worth your sacrifice abi? Or you are completely paralyzed except in your fingers to type dry jokes

You can see hypocrisy cum stupidity. You mean there is nobody across the Niger that is athletic enough to be in that list?
Late Sardauna said it and it is true. Give small space to an Ibo man, he will claim the entire space. From time momerial , IBO are the ones that dominated super eagles, are you telling me other ttibes doesn't know what is happening? Only Samson Siasia when in charge of flying eaglets that use to select his players across length and breadth of Nigeria.

Even till today, the Ibos out number other ttibes in Federal services but they will complain heavily as if nothing is happening.

They have no choice other than to select the Igbos.

In this case, you select the best or you fail woefully.
