Ten Nigerian athletes were yesterday banned from participating in the Tokyo2020 Olympic Games.

Nigeria is the most affected country, not meeting the minimum testing requirements under Rule 15.

Blessing Okagbare's reaction:

I have said it before and I will say it again. If you do not know the sport, not passionate about it/Us (the athletes), then you have no business there as an administrator. The sport system in Nigeria is so flaw and we athletes, are always at the receiving end of the damages..

They were busy fighting over power, Excercising their pride over puma contract/ kits forgetting their major responsibility "THE ATHLETES". It's sad that this cycle keeps repeating its self and some people will come out to say I am arrogant for speaking my truth. It is my CAREER❤


Blessing Okagbare MFR

Okagbare is a proud Olympian, having won a silver medal in the long jump at the 2008 Beijing Games. The 32-year-old Delta native is going to her fourth Olympic Games and has her eyes set on winning another medal, but this time in the 100m sprint.

She ran a wind-assisted time of 10.63 in Lagos in June, which has buoyed her confidence going to Tokyo. Okagbare is the current African record holder in the 200m with her run of 22.04 seconds in 2018. She was the African 100m and long jump champion in 2010.

Buhari and his Fulani cohorts have destroyed even the sports we were managing.

Haba!

How can cluelessness be so infectious.

Economy is in shambles
Agriculture is almost destroyed
Education is gasping
Sports done collapse
Naira is dead
Jobs and Youths zero
Social Investment nil
Military that you claim to own zero

Kai, where did you people bring this man from?

Truth is, the despot in Aso Rock is no inspiration or model for the sports teams, he has no passion for sports, has no interest in sports, and only cares about nepotism when it comes to appointing sports administrators or any other political position

I can feel the pains of the athletes.

After preparing for years for an event, some i.diots will just jeopardize the entire effort.

Nigeria is a big disgrace, I am watching the olympics and seeing very young people, teenagers winning Olympic medals.There are lots of sports to compete in, cycling, swimming, boat rowing.These are sports that with the right training and facilities Nigeria will dominate.They won't even have to force people in the South South Creeks to abandan militancy, they will leave it themselves.Who wants to be militant when they can win gold in olympics swimming and boat rowing.our leaders are just shortsighted
