It’s not because of language. Koreans and Japanese are fiercely pro non immigration
If na language Benin people for no full Italy

nairalanda1:
Racisim exists in Europe and the USA, yet many black people emigrate there.

Largely because of linguistic links. Anglophone blacks go to the UK and USA. Francophone goes to France or Canada..lusophones, Portugal, and even then most learn English as a second language so..

Korea? You have to learn a new language, and a totally new culture. Or else only job there is ESL teacher.

Thank you for entertaining me, I had a good laugh
You wanted only basketball?

Okay let’s start from obasanjo. AI is your friend if you’re too young to know


What else would you like to know so I can educate you?

AI Overview

In 2004, following the Nigerian women's national basketball team's twin gold medal victories at the 2003 FIBA Africa Championship and the All-Africa Games, then-President Olusegun Obasanjo hosted the team and gave them gifts. Though some of the team's foreign-based players had already left, the home-based members were received at the Presidential Villa in Abuja for a formal "Presidential handshake".
Team achievements in 2003
All-Africa Games: In October 2003, the Nigerian team won the gold medal in basketball at the All-Africa Games, which were hosted in Abuja, Nigeria.
FIBA Africa Championship: In December 2003, the team, known as D'Tigress, went on to win the FIBA Africa Championship for Women in Mozambique. The victory secured their first title and a spot in the 2004 Summer Olympics.
Presidential recognition
The presidential reception and rewards were a recognition of the team's double victory in 2003. The reception served as a formal honor, following which the team prepared for its historic appearance at the Athens Olympics in 2004.

List o! List the times and amounts! (Specifically for D'Tigress).

By the way, I am not referring to her basketball salary. I asked if you knew how much she was worth, not how much was her basketball salary.

By the way, thank you for admitting that she tried 3 times before the event that you specifically mentioned.
I’m not here to do your research for you to learn what you do not know. I know cos I was there


I told you they don’t get paid much

See below some examples


in appreciation of their efforts in bringing back Nigeria’s soccer glory.
Super Eagles’ Coach, Stephen Keshi, was N10 million richer courtesy of the Federal Government. In addition, he was conferred with the nation’s fourth ranking national honour – Commander of the Order of the Niger (CON).
Each of the players got N5 million and were conferred with the national honour of Member of the Order of the Niger (MON).
The team captain, Joseph Yobo, who also got a cash gift of N5 million like other players, was, however, conferred with the national honour of Officer of the Order of the Niger (OON).
All the assistant coaches also got N5 million each and were also conferred with the national honour of OON while the technical officials got N2 million each.
In addition to the cash gifts and the national honours, Jonathan also announced that each member of the team will get a plot of land in Abuja, the nation’s capital. The allocation papers were presented to them at the ceremony.
The president also announced donations from individuals such as Chairman, Globacom, Dr. Mike Adenuga ($1m); former Managing Director, United Bank for Africa Plc, Mr. Tony Elumelu- ($500,000) and Sir Emeka Offor ($500,000).

Do you know how much Nneka Ogwumike is worth?? Do you know how much Chiney Ogwumike is worth? How many times have D'Tigress been given such amount of money (state the years and amount of money)?

You initially posted a specific instance and said that instance changed her mind, yet she has been trying to play for Nigeria before that event even happened.
Seattle Storm, Nneka Ogwumike agree to 1-year dealNneka Ogwumike's 2025 base salary with the Seattle Storm is $195,000. She signed a one-year



In America we have open salaries
A tech manager or doctor can make more than what she’s making now here

I read the article and saw she had attempted 3 times before I referenced the money and house gifts. It’s a tradition, if you’re old enough to know, anytime Nigeria wins a major tournament
