At least if the ones with able legs and hands can't do well in Olympic our Paralympic are making us proud. Congrat.

Paralympics athletes doing Nigeria proud.

Congratulations🎉🥳👏

That's very impressive

Good.

Why are Nigeria's paralympic athletes doing so well? Is there anything I'm missing?

BTW, is it only Igbos and Yorubas went to the Paris paralympic Olympics?

OMOLUABI

It's because most of them were selected on merit..... Our first gold I think

Nice.

Congrats!

Lols I just knew they will come up with theirs.

Still can't be compared to the number of Amakas that have won medals recently in the tournament.

This is not bigotry, it's foolishness
I pity your children or the ones you are going to bring into the world in future. You are pathetic

You people have started again . Wetin be una problem sef?!!! Haba!!!

Even, Omolayo won silver yesterday nobody made any noise. The total number of medals won so far is 7. Igbos 3, Yorubas 4. This una rivalry is just so unhealthy.

Really good one. Congratulations to her

Congratulations 👏🏼🎉👏🏼🌠🤩🌹👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 well done my sister. You have made the nation proud 😀

Sweeetheart:
How dumb can you be Toy, come up? Or she was credited with Gold for winning


Yoruba ain't in competition with Igbo, you're not in the class of people to compete with. Meanwhile this wins is credited to Nigeria not Yoruba


You need a new brain with this your senseless and gossip mentality

I love the way you have put it.

This is highest stage of delusion and confusion, you must activate your victim mentality and inferiority complex to fulfill your destiny. Shior!

Kudos to our medalists: Folashade & Onyinyechi and others.

40th placed ( we can improve on this in USA-2028)

Greater heights champs 😉

China dominated the Paralympics again

Nice

Congratulations to her and to all Nigerians
