I don't understand these athletes. So they take these drugs in error or what? Don't they know they will be tested?

It is the job of the athletes to monitor what they take into their bodies

Unless you want athletic officials following the athletes everywhere, even into the bathroom and their bedrooms, every day, what you are proposing is impossible
The officials are the ones who have first hand knowledge about banned drugs!
There are both banned and permissible substances that officials should be aware of and advise where needed and ensure the players adhere to only the permissible substances according to the IOC regulation....That's their duty instead of their usual 'follow come' attitude to important tournaments like the Olympics!
Ask yourself Why would an athlete take a banned substance/drugs knowing fully well that they will be discovered?
Athletes don't just take any drugs without advise from the officials through their physicians!

Well some take the substances even then. Even knowing that they would be discovered. (You need to have been following athletics for some time to see cinema)

Again, the drug Blessing took to have any effect has to be injected intravenously. Unless she was forced to take it by some thugs, she did take it delibreately, and probably thought she won't be caught because HGH is produced in the body.

Athletes , like many other humans break laws too.

Infact one top US athlete is not at this Olympics because she knowingly took a banned substance, and even admitted to doing so.

It makes no sense to take banned substances knowing fully well that such athletes will be discovered and possibly shamed and disgraced out of the Olympics!
Some of the athletes are not really knowledgeable about the substances that are permissible or not.....Even if they knew and decided to go ahead and take such, they go through an internal test from their national physicians to confirm that they are clean of any banned substance!

Whether Blessing took them intentionally or not is not even the issue here....Why was there no internal test from the officials to affirm that the athletes are clean?
Blessing cannot take any substance without the advise of their national physicians!

True but with the cooperation of the officials through their physicians!

That was because an internal test was conducted by the officials before leaving and she was discovered hence, she had to be omitted from going to the Olympics to avoid further embarrassment!

Look, athletes break rules. She is not the first to willingly break rules thinking she won't be caught....and she won't be the last.

Let's even consider the fact that she is not doing as well as she used to, and probably resorted to drugs out of desperation

It's life, and no one said it had to be fair.

Good morning.

P.S Don't mention the AFN ...that has been in so much crisis recently.

So do they break rules with or without the involvement of the officials through the permission of the officials?
No one is saying the rules can't be broken and we cannot also assume and conclude that blessing knowingly took banned substances without the assistance of the national physicians with the permission of the officials!
Bro No Athlete takes these drugs without the involvement or knowledge of the officials!
Hence the officials and national physicians have questions to answer if there will be a panel of inquiry!
Happy morning!

and you BELIEVE this cock and bull story? the RESTAURANT just put silly ingredient that turns meat to TYSON MUSCLES. and na MEXICAN?
you know MEXICANS like COCAINE like water? you no know say big DRUG DEALERS dey mexico.


vibre:

It was an out of competition test, meaning all her samples taken during competitions were drug free. The world doping agency started one nonsense policy where they can just call you any time and test for drugs within one hour. There's no way she can know the impact of every single food or drink she takes in her day to day life. But if it's during competitions, her team officials will take care of that. Do you know you might go and buy ordinary rice and beans to eat, you won't know that one of the ingredients used in cooking it will make you test positive. One British athlete was banned just before the Olympics, she was shocked because she knew she didn't dope so they investigated and eventually found out that a Mexican restaurant where she use to hang out with her friends use an ingredient in cooking their meat and that's what made her test positive. Can you imagine that? Just going out to hang out with your friends and eat fish or goat meat only for the doping agency to come to your house suddenly and you test positive for what you know nothing about.

nigeria is a crime scene

It's this sort of comments that emboldened the outside world to pick on Nigerians. If people create this attitude that Nigerians are all criminals and unscrupulous people, for instance, spike Nigerian athletes food out there and later the Nigeria athlete protests that she took no drugs, no one will believe, the world will just say, 'oh it's those Nigerians, they always cheat'.

I find it difficult to believe Blessing would take drugs. Something fishy is going on. Are Indians in charge of lab based drug testing for this Olympics?

What has she to say for herself, has anyone interviewed her ?

There is no racism, or how do you explain the black athletes that actually won...especially the blacks that won the first three medals in the 10000 meters yesterday?

Okagbare took banned substances willingly. And she has to face the consequences.

Oga I've been following this up. What about the two females athletes disqualified because they're tomboy?

While there are transgender females competing with real females and they allowed them.

There's so much racism in this Olympics
