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.
mmmm OK you and the lifeless one is sharing the same brain mmmmmm

Why are they almost all Igbos in all the sports we consider "real" sports?

Sport is sport what do you mean by "real sports"? You must be an illiterate, just because you don't like some sports or it isn't popular in your demography doesn't mean it is not sport.


Igbo only dominate the basketball team while Yoruba dominate badminton, boxing and tennis even the swimming team .

I really don't care because they wont bring anything back home.

Anyway, i appreciate them for participating.


Note: See how igbo people dominate everywhere, after they will claim that Nigeria hate them and don't want their success and their usual shout of marginalization.
if the merit in sports is extended in government and many other sectors,I bet you will not find any hausa talk more of Fulani anywhere. .
God punish all the wayo people taking us backward..

Since it was by merit as you claimed, why is Nigeria not winning any medal since the igbos started representing Nigeria. Maybe they are all mediocre athletes

The last time we got a medal was in 1996, a very diverse and merit based Olympic team.

It's a shame that local coaches failed to qualify Nigeria football teams to Olympics

Only 60 , something that used to be 300

Merit my black ass...the only thing they have in common is that they are all based abroad.

Was there any competition in Nigeria to select the best.

Every country goes to a competition process to select the best, their is always a heat process where those who reaches the final get to go to the Olympics but in Nigeria it is different.

So mr man, if it was merit then many names listed wouldn't have been on the list.


I agree with you....
