Birmingham 2022: Medal Rain For Team Nigeria With 13 Medals So Far by joy4news(m): 1:56pm On Aug 05, 2022
As earlier predicted in Thursday’s Para-Athletics at the ongoing 2022 Commonwealth Games holding in Birmingham, it was a medal rain for Nigeria as its Team clinched 13 medals; 5 gold, 3 silver and 5 bronze thereby placing the country high on the medals table.

Nwachukwu Chiemerie kickstarted the gold performances when she broke a new record that earned her a Gold medal in Discus.

As the games continued, Folashade Oluwafemiayo and Bose Omolayo completely dominated the field, breaking this year’s Commonwealth Games with every lift until Oluwafemiayo broke another World Record with her last lift thus clinching the second gold for Nigeria while Bose Omolayo rounded it off with a Silver.

Team Nigeria further recorded another feat with Obichukwu Ikechukwu winning a Silver medal in the men’s heavyweight category while Nnamdi Innocent’s lift of 132.5kg in the Men’s lightweight won a bronze medal for the country.

This time around, it is the Igbos that are shinning. I wonder where all this Kano, Katsina, Kaduna, Jigawa, Sokoto, Zamfara, Borno people dey. Abi are they not Nigerians again? Oh, abi the Northern allah forbids them from participating in sports, but the Southern allah of the Yoruba people permits sport? I just don't gerrit.
