Nigeria's Goodness Chiemerie Nwachukwu has clinched Gold in the final of the women's Discus Throw F42-44/61-64 event in the ongoing XXII Commonwealth Games holding in Birmingham.

The 23-year-old threw 34.84m to set a new World Record in her first attempt, then threw 36.56m in her second attempt to eclipse her previous world record.

She came close to smashing another with a 36.31m and 36.38m in her 3rd and 5th attempts respectively.

However, her second attempt (36.56m) did the job to produce Gold in style.

Australia's Sarah Edmiston (Silver: 34.96m) and Fiji's Naibili Vatunisolo (Bronze: 23.70m) also scored podium finishes.

Initially we were seeing only Yoruba names and now we are seeing Igbo names winning medals, I love the competitive spirit of Yorubas and Igbos and South South peoples.
Talents abound here in the north undiscovered because of religious sentiments fuelled illiteracy and backwardness.
I hope Labour Party will start a process of changing the mentality of the average Northerners to forego quota system and become competitive like the southerners by believing in their abilities

Please let's support honourable Peter obi for the president's of federal Republic of Nigeria, we are tired of those thief's now,

Without a tribalism and nepotism any sane Nigerian know it's only someone like Peter obi that can now rescue Nigeria from total collapsing, but seriously some ethnic bigot people will just still prefer to hav their own man at the affairs of the country either he is capable or not than to go for what could have been the best solution to all nigerian's current problems, #ObiDatti2023 is certain

In all fairness, Igbo deserves the next presidency, this tribe has been representing Nigeria very well for so long 90% of super Eagles players are from this tribe, most Nollywood actors are from there, most track and field events record holder are from from the east! In all fairness, The Igbo has been representing us and giving us joy as a nation! Let's give them the chance to rule also abeg
