Nor mind them my brother, this guys are born racists, nor be their fault sha, na Africans wey they always seek validation from them I blame

If a British or Jamaican had smashed the record they would praise her for being a legend. But a Nigerian has done it and because they can't wrap their heads around the fact that something legendary can come out of Nigeria, they've brought out their empty pundit English to analyze emptiness. Don't just let Nigerians swear for you guys. This is one thing that has given the nation joy recently in the midst of all we're passing through so let us enjoy our girl in peace plix angry

Of course I've been expecting this. This is how they always behave. Later we will hear she was stripped off her medal because she took aspirin before the race, and aspirin contains this and that banned substances. Nonsense individuals.

She should be ready to go through as many tests as possible (Like 50 or more) because those white are still in shock. Congratulations. Naija to the world.

Stop playing the race card. Look at the argument of the doubters. How likely that so many runner were setting PBs(Personal Bests) and the winner broke the previous world best? Think and stop the blind race argument.

No matter the good a Nigerian will do,his\her action will be questioned.


Imagine if it was an american that broke the record,the phrase "Legend" will be attacted to their action.

He should channel his question to Seiko. .(the timer).

If she were American, he would have shut up his dirty mouth.

That record still look like fairytale to me I swear. That girl is a legend.

How do you run 100 meters with hurdles (jumping fence grin) in 12 seconds?!

Expect the whites to subject her to series of drug tests. cheesy

Today's drug testing regime is harder than yesteryears.

Now, you get tested at home, at competition, and most of the time, the testers can come when you don't expect them.

If she was on drugs, they would have known since.

Missing any test? You get an instant ban.

Michael Johnson is an American, and a former Olympic gold medalist. He is also black.

Also, another pundit (Colin Jackson, Welsh, and a black man too...) on the same BBC commended Amusan.

The problem is not with the win, it appears to be with the timing machines.

You have no evidence for that. Nigeria is too big to be playing victim.

This is just pandering to base sentiment. Do you really understand the issue. Of course we must support our own rationally not emotionally
So first we must listen and understand what is being said. Nobody has it in for Nigeria. If anything, Nigerians are their worst enemies. I am old enough to remember how the World Celebrated us for winning football gold medal in Atlanta
In that race Not just the winner but several others ran PERSONAL BESTS and those times not just for the winner are being doubted. It does not mean they are correct but it is a legitimate doubt.
There are rules about wind speed but the authorities have ruled the wind speed was legal so we must leave
The thing about racism or prejudice is even if you suspect it you have to learn to keep quiet if you have no evidence otherwise you end up looking churlish
Here they were questioning the times not only of the winner

The whites are not shocked , it isnt their area of strength anymore since 1936 Olympics when the legendary Jesse Owens shocked Adolf Hitler at Munich. The pundit quoted here is Micheal Jackson a very black man. Is he guilty of black racism ?

Colin is Black Welsh. They have no problems with Africans and Colin is a very cool guy. Michael on the other hand is full of himself and ish.

Never meet your heroes.

True...have had some time to really look at Johnson's comments.

Also, on another online fora...there was a lot of questions about the clocks.

Finally, Amusan was using an Adidas shoe that was designed for long distance runners (recommended directly by Adidas themseves after she developed a bad case of fasiculitis). Shoe was very legal (the silver medalist in the same race used a similar shoe made by New Balance)..which may have helped.
