Nigeria's Favour Ofili Qualifies For 200m Final by success1smyn(op): 8:15pm On Aug 05, 2024
Nigeria’s Favour Ofili ran another season-best time to finish second in heat 1 to qualify for the final of the women’s 200 metres event at the Paris Olympics

Ofili finished in 22.05s behind newly crowned 100 metres Olympic champion, Julien Alfred who ran 21.98s. USA’s McKenzie Long finished third in 22.30s

Ofili’s 22.05s is an improvement on the 22.24s she ran in the first round on Sunday.

You are forgetting Amusan and Oborodudu.

Amusan is involved in a drugs scandal.
Ofili is clean.

Clear difference.

She has been cleared, that's why she can compete at the Olympics

Why did she take drugs in the first place?
That's the question.

She was not banned, go and read. I said she was cleared.

Unfortunately you are not the authority that determines who has used drugs or not. The Court of Arbitration for Sports is the highest authority on such matters and has CLEARED Amusan. QED.

As an athlete you sometimes experience body pain and doctors can recommend hundreds of drugs with none working for you this is where the thin line is drawn between the drugs they consume. It's not like they intend to cheat by taking drugs. That's the world of an athlete.

The fact that she needed clearance sums it up.

You don't have issues with amusan, you have issues with her tribe.. And sadly there's little you can do about it, She's our star girl, a world record holder, a bonafide sporting superstar... Every top athletes gets tested for drug during the course of their career... So get your bigotry deluded mentality out of here....

Have you asked what would make a Nigerian pick on an athlete representing the country for ridicule, especially when that athlete is our best? Why are you pretending as if you are not aware of the current issues in our polity, and particularly on Nairaland? What sort of false piety is this?


Everyone can see what you are.
