Why are people always doing better when they go abroad.

You get everything you need to become what ever you want to be.
If you ready to work and learn then you would have access to what you need to become the best

Yes, village people are not using satellite gps yet.. They are only on terrestrial coverage. So if you know what is good for you, find way escape

The guy might be a good sprinter but, that fear factor when placed among the bad guys such as bolt, justin gatlin, asafa powell etc...the guy might end up coming 5th or 6th.

You a sport man, my hood and school used to believe I was a basketball wiz, from empty courts of Milo championships, I use to believe I was one of the best. The day I say 500 people watching my game, I was a renowned failure. My legs and hands were shaking.

They do better overseas because over there, everyone strives to achieve excellence.
In Nigeria, that spirit of excellence is non -existent because our systems reward laziness and mediocrity.

I'll ignore the clickbait title.

This is truly inspiring, someone that fellow Nigerians were mocking some years ago is now making waves in his sport.

Lessons to be learned here.

Nigeria's Divine Oduduru who is currently a student of the Texas Tech University, has become the fastest man in the world after breaking a 10-year-old jinx.The Nigerian born sprinter who competed in the 200m and finished 7th at the Rio Olympic Games in 2016, ran sub-10 over the weekend in an invitational.

Divine Oduduru became the fastest man in the world, after he ran the fastest time in the world in 2019, clocking a lifetime best of 9.94 (0.8 m/s), at the Michael Johnson Invitational in Waco, Texas.His 100m PB, until the invitation, was 10.10 set in 2018. He also smashed his 200m PB still stands at 20.08, running the fastest time this year, 19.76.

He not only shattered his own PB (20.08) in the 200m, his time would have won him gold at the 2016 Olympic Games 200m event, with Usain Bolt in the field.

This sounds nice, but those figures there didn't break any of Bolt's records for 100m or 200m.

He probably just beat Bolt's winning time in Rio. That in itself is impressive all the same.

People should also not forget that if Bolt had not slowed down to celebrate early the time would have been even shorter.

Please stop it!

His 100m time is the fastest in the world this year! He didn't break Bolt's record. The world record is 9.58. please modify your headline
Good observation. 9.54 is unbreakable in the next 10 years

ODUDURU sounds Delta state.

I think this guy is from either Urhobo or Isoko tribe of Delta state of Nigeria.
