10 years ban........ That's harsh and injurious to her career.

It's a pity the AFN will abadone her to her fate.

I pray she finds mercy

What career at the age of 30 something.

With or without the ban, Blessing is past her best.

She should go back to school and get enough certification to go into coaching.

An accused person has the right to remain silent.
An accused person has the right to engage the services of a lawyer.

Blessing Okagbare has the right to appeal.
The double ban is like sentencing an accused person for an offence, then adding another sentence for refusing to cooperate with the police.

The ban will still affect her even if she bagged the certification for coaching. She won't be certified to coach while the ban is still substiting

It'll also stain her career profile as a former track queen with a 10 years ban.

You do drugs or not Simple question
In fairness to athletes who fall into this trap, doping may not necessarily involve deliberate intake of drugs, they may have inadvertently consumed a somethibg which contains one of the banned substances, that is why professional athletes must always watch what they eat or drink. What a way for her to end her career.

Other athletes that have received a ban for anti-doping violations didn't involve lawyers for theirs. E reach auntie Blessing Okagbare own she carry lawyer..



If she involved lawyers, then know that something is wrong somewhere, this her Saga does not started overnight, it started during the Olympics, and had to do with our Afn officials,

or how do you explain the banning of 8 Athletes prior to their racing for both the semi final, and finals

I just read on a blog where Blessing Okagbare was arrested by the FBI using a new law 2020 about doping or performance enhancing drugs to influence an international major competition. If true, i'm so sadden with turn of events, she must have horrible advisors but she has been around the international track scene a long time. Why single out her though?
Re: Doping Violations: Blessing Okagbare Reacts To 10-Year Ban by frog12: 4:36pm On Feb 19, 2022
As Okagbare returned to the United States, according to the complaint, her phone was searched by American border officials and an FBI agent. The complaint cited phone communications in which she allegedly arranged for Lira to supply her and a male athlete, referred to only as “Athlete-2,” with drugs she referred to as “honey,” for human growth hormone, and “epo,” for “blood-building” drug erythropoietin.
