What if it was the only tribe with players available? Name Yoruba or other ethnicity player that deserve a spot in the team but was left out. You people just be steering trouble where there is non.

But their performances have been awful, which raises questions about their competence.

My question ❓ do we have other competent people from other tribes that was left out, let is name names, eg osohala is a great basketball player for so so club in Europe or American but was not picked because she is a Yoruba girl.
My point is we Played with what we have available, most of those girls were born abroad, Nigeria does not have grassroots sports development basketball included, let's not make everything about tribe, hopefully we will learn and start integrating sport from schools

I thought nigeria had good basketball teams

Is dea anyone surprised dat they won us? I don't think so, Nigeria is coming bak empty handed

Hmmm

You are a Bloody Idiott and Bigot including those that liked your post.

Will you be making this remark if this team representing Nigeria is doing well.

Who's fault is it that Igbos are picking up Basketball and doing well in it when other tribes are not interested or opted to represent foreign countries?

Who's fault that is it that the best players Nigeria could pick and send to Tokyo are Igbos.

Who's fault is it that Nigeria is not investing in Basketball and embezzle funds that is budgeted for sports developments.
Do you know how many players on that team are self sponsored yet Nigeria has a sport ministry.
The male Basketball team is self funded.
The Gymnast guy from America who is also Igbo is Self funded. And you dare blame them when they fail to impress you?

As long as Nigeria continue to be backward in simple administrative duties, it is the same way everything concerning the Nation will be backward, if you like send majority Hausa and Yoruba.

In addition, Nigerians will remain backward in all ramifications as long as you continue to spew Igbo phobia.

You Should be grateful those Igbos came down to represent Nigeria. You are not even ashamed of your country that doesn't care about it's athletes. Idiiot.

If you want sports to grow in Nigeria then emulate other sports Heavy weight countries not spewing bigotry at Igbos that are the best legs Nigeria can boost of. Anuohia.

You deserve an Olympic gold medal for this comment.

Limassol:
why was the goddamn team igbo-dominated? Out of nearly 250 ethnic groups?

u sound stupid

We are not going anywhere.

We allowed ethnicity and bigotry to blind our eyes to the real talents. A lot of very good talents were dropped just because of their Muslim names and/states of origin.

You dey yarn this yanga while ignoring Buhari's administration

Too funny. If you like make your own ummah team.

haslaw:


The UK and US are killing racism, while bigots like you are defending tribalism. You are a dangerous bigot and you need help if you didn't see the lopsided nature of the team.

Yoruba - 1
Hausa - 0
Igbo -13
Niger Delta -1
Tiv - 0
Igala - 0
Kanuri - 0
Fulani - 0
Other tribes- 0

Go carry your survey to NNPC beg
