There's a qualifying time and performance that made you participate in the Olympic, Nigeria athlete didn't make it. If it's an open tournament, every country will come with at least 500 athletes. majamajic: |

thebosstrevor1: There is something called Merit because Igbos are the best and do well in sports since the history of Nigeria. When you go for these international events, you send your best athletes which happens to be Igbos. You got no choice. 2 Likes |

Boudiccao: The selection was not by merit but by mere availability. Merit means holding a national sport competition in Nigeria to select the best representatives, that is what other countries do, and that is why we have Olympic qualifiers for football. Many names won't be on that list, if it was by merit. 2 Likes |

Naturally, Igbos body composition are perfect for sports. Trust me, if I close my eyes and touch a Nigerian lady, I'll tell you if she's Igbo. I'll get it right 90% of d time. I've read about two expert articles on it before. An American sport journalist, Dennis Dodd did a detail research on that.. If an Igbo guy and I start lifting weight today and following the same regiments, he will bulk up faster than me. FreeIgboho: 3 Likes |

saajus: These explanations is the same explanation they give to African Americans who participate in sports. But the issue here is why isn't there no result. All the Olympics we have been attending, we haven't gotten any medal except in football |

unbitchable: Why don't you show us that record. The igbos have been participating in all Olympics, yet no results, no medal why? the last medal we received was i believe in the Olympics in the United states of America. |

Kingpele:but come to think of it,this "dot in a circle" u guys have been shouting about, have u ever asked urself what d president actually meant.coz a dot in a circle is actually surrounded by dat circle and if u look at d Nigerian map,the south east,where u guys claim to b biafra is actually surrounded by other Nigerian states.even if biafra comes,u will have to go through Nigeria to access it in all fronts.which actually makes the south east like a dot in a circle.its a metaphor,which likens one thing to another as opposed to simile.pls stop shouting and think for once.dont allow others do the thinking for u.it shall b well with u. |
