"The key requirement in Rule 15 is that an athlete from a ‘Category A’ country must undergo at least three no-notice out-of-competition tests (urine and blood) conducted no less than three weeks apart in the 10 months leading up to a major event"

Nigeria's Athletics Federation under the minister of sport, Sunday Dare is now a confirmed disaster!!!

Tax payers money wasted to fly ineligible athletes, that the Federation knows won't compete.

Just like the silly incompetence displayed by the Boxing federation, that didn't allow boxers participate in Olympic qualifiers in Senegal...

Minister of Sports have failed woefully!!!

Mr Sunday Dare should resign!!!

Jacobx007, you didn't understand the news; at least this news didn't tell us that they did steroids.

Instead, those Nigerians were banned because they failed to do the required tests before the games. The test would show that they were qualified for Tokyo Olympics.

The people in charge of this team (management) should have known this and conducted the test before the games. This is so embarrassing.

Among other things, the rule sets out minimum requirements for testing for the national teams of ‘Category A’ federations deemed to have the highest doping risk and considered as a threat to the overall integrity of the sport.

The rule is too harsh. It puts the burden of proof of innocence on the national teams.

In addition, the categorization aspect of the rule creates a kind of sports apartheid.
Re: 10 Nigerian Athletes Banned From Tokyo Olympics by toxtimmy: 7:45pm On Jul 28, 2021
I can bet my last bag of garri that the Nigerian Olympic committee was given millions of dollars for out of competion testing of athletes and also they took money from federal goverment to do same testing but here comes the breaking news... That is despite all this money received no testing was done and money is gone... I will bet my last bag of Beans on this too.

budaatum:


This is Nigeria letting us citizens down by not conducting no-notice out-of-competition tests.

Shameful, after all the training done by the athletes.

Meanwhile, weeks ago billions was proposed by our Senators for presidential and what have you expences during elections. But to fund sporting activities in the country to standard is not of importance to them.

As I’ve always said, disorganisation is at the foundation of much of Nigeria’s failings. Even the article wasn’t organised enough – it didn’t provided names of affected athletes.
