Olympics: Nigeria Awarded 4x400m Relay Gold. by wadoski: 10:23pm On Jul 21, 2012
Nigeria was officially awarded the men‘s 4x400m relay Gold medal from the 2000 Sydney Olympics on Saturday following a meeting of the International Olympic Committe (IOC) excutive board. The Nigerians took the gold originally won by the United States who has since been disqualiied and stripped of their medal because of the late Antonio Pettigrew confessing to having been doped at the time of the games. Nigeria is elevated to the winners with Jamaica and the Bahamas taking silver and bronze respectively. At last what rightly belongs to Nigeria is now hers, thank God.
