Zero medals in 8 Olympics, damn Nigeria this is embarrassing 🤣🤣🤣
This lady is speaking facts it’s input output and outcomes
South Africa finished higher than Algeria they had 2 silvers 6 medals in total
Wow, our country Jamaica didnt have a great Olympics, our sprinters normality do better in terms of medals. But zero medals is Crazy from a black country with 200+ million people. I guess we can be proud of our seven medals.
In Kenya we got 4 gold medals and still say we underperformed.
zimbabwe sent 7 atheletes and sixty seven officials and they came back with zero medals despite wasting pubic resources officials who went there as tourists what a shame
But Nigeria you at least do very well in africa cup of nations.. You are very good in football. Don't be so hard in yrselves..
Kenya (pop 60mn) won 4 golds at Paris 2024. USA @ 40 golds(350mn), st Lucía at 1 gold, 1 silver from same person. Botswana 1 gold .2.5mn .Abandon the population argument dear Nigerians. Its not scientific.
Well done to the two giants of Africa: NIG and RSA. Six medals combined.
Kenya leads africa
22:30 Why did you not show all of South Africa’s medals? We won 6 medals in total. 1 gold, 3 silver 2 bronze
You have corrupt your own system now you want us allow Nigerians to corrupt our south african system.
Why are they owing the young athletes?
While they are struggling to make the nation proud, they are withholding their money. Didn't they think that could affect their performances. Please who ever is responsible fot that should try to settle those young athletes.
Nigeria should do better.
We expected much, but got nothing at last.
Nigeria should invest in athletics.
Our youths are ready to lift the image of the country up internationally.
Chai, incredibile.
Nobody will do sports competitions for Nigeria in the future. The system is too corrupt , nothing is working in Nigeria, Nigeria doesn't exist anymore.
What is that lady on about? She is talking about quantity. It is quality which can only be achieved through investments and supports from businesses, governments and individual sponsors.
Cecilia, When we start telling ourselves the truth or stop denying the truth our leaders are not doing the right things. We can go in circles but the truth is constant. Our leaders are very corrupt and this affects everything we do and manners do not fall from heaven without hard-work
What do you expect, magic?. There is no light in Nigeria as long as tinubu and shettima is sitting as president and vice president. Drug lord and terrorist. Even when we had hope on Amusan and D Tigres, and others, the light went off. What a country under Escobar and Osama bin laden.
To the presenter you started your analysis from 60s just skip the like of okorodudu,mary,falilat Bassey, dream teams in 1996,chioma etc pls stop sentimental discussion
You cannot separate the widespread institutionalized corruption in government from the poor performance in sports. Yes, politics plays a role in it. Poor governance has harmful effects on all aspects of the country's activities. Good athletes don't appear out of thin air. You have to search for and train them before you can reap the rewards. While quality is more important than quantity, Nigeria, being the largest black nation on earth, should be able to compete with the US in track and field events even better than Jamaica. It's truly disheartening to see how far Nigeria has fallen behind in almost every measure of development.
I quite sports professionally because
1. I was sponsoring myself and trying to keep up with my personal demands with zero motivation and encouragement.
2. No level playing field at home as there was no drug test for local competitions, no right weight matching, no proper equipments like fighting gloves, etc.
3. Internal corruption as even our leaders are broke and preying on every penny we the athletes are giving.
4. Rotten corrupted internal system with terrible spoiled or no equipment and free drug market.
So, why should I be taken such needless risk in boxing with no future?
We would never get it right with this kind of diminishing growth mentality.
Inter house, inter schools, and inter state competition are completely death or in epileptic surviving state totally rigged.
See, this way we're going, more zero's to come.
Rubbish govt with rubbish people in power. When we have plenty of talents in the streets, but they don’t have have any one in power
Tinubu stole election why would anything work when the Government is corrupt 😅😅😅😅😅 lol ololo country 😅😅
Sorry, Botswana is there. My apology
Nigeria is a bad country 😅😅😅😅😅
When the leaders in Nigeria are bad, everything else won't work. Bad Government leads to general bad result. 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Sorry, the Africa medal table is wrong, I cannot see Botswana there. Thanks
This is the price of corruption. They will never release the funding for them.
Please mention the Nigerians that are playing for other countries o. They can’t win when in Nigeria but can win for others, this should tell you where all the blame lies.
Lack of funding is a significant barrier that can prevent athletes from reaching their full potential, particularly when it comes to performing at the Olympics. The financial constraints impact athletes at various stages of their careers, from grassroots development to elite competition.
Grassroots Development
The foundation of any successful athlete is laid during their early years, often referred to as the grassroots level. This stage is crucial for identifying and nurturing talent. However, in many regions, lack of funding for grassroots programs means that young athletes do not receive the proper training, facilities, or coaching they need to develop their skills.
Without access to quality equipment, well-maintained facilities, and experienced coaches, promising athletes may never reach their full potential. Moreover, limited funding often means fewer opportunities for young athletes to compete at regional and national levels, where they can gain experience and exposure. In many cases, talented individuals from underprivileged backgrounds are forced to abandon their sporting dreams altogether due to the costs associated with training, travel, and competition fees.
Elite Training and Olympic Preparation
For those who do make it past the grassroots stage, the financial hurdles continue. Preparing for the Olympics is an incredibly demanding and expensive endeavor. Athletes require top-tier coaching, access to specialized facilities, medical support, nutrition, and the opportunity to compete internationally to gauge their progress against the world’s best.
In countries or regions where sports funding is inadequate, even elite athletes struggle to cover these expenses. Without sufficient funding, athletes may have to compromise on the quality of their training or work part-time jobs to support themselves, detracting from the time and energy they can dedicate to their sport. This financial strain can also lead to mental stress, further impacting performance.
The Impact on Olympic Performance
At the Olympic level, the margin between success and failure is often incredibly thin. Athletes who have had the best preparation, including access to world-class facilities, competition experience, and comprehensive support teams, have a significant advantage. Those who have faced financial difficulties may enter the Games at a disadvantage, not because of a lack of talent or dedication, but because they haven’t had the same level of preparation.
Countries with well-funded sports programs tend to dominate the medal tables, while those with limited resources often struggle to make an impact. This disparity in funding perpetuates inequality in international sports, where only the wealthiest nations can afford to consistently produce Olympic champions.
Conclusion
The lack of funding is a critical issue that hinders the development of athletes at every level, from grassroots to the Olympic stage. Without adequate financial support, many talented individuals are unable to reach their full potential, and the overall quality of Olympic competition suffers as a result. Addressing this funding gap is essential to ensuring that all athletes, regardless of their economic background, have an equal opportunity to compete and succeed at the highest levels of sport.
Swimming forget
The bad governance in Nigeria affect our athletic team,
Yes she is right. I'm also an athlete, nobody is helping athlete in Nigeria.
The worst in years
Giant of africa😂😂😂😂😂……welele😂😂😂
Some of the coaches are clueless as well. For instance, Tiwa godbless shouldn’t have been on the 4×100 relay team. She’s not that fast. I said godbless should never anchor for Nigeria, even though I am not a coach, I could see it. Did you guys see the way sprinters ran past her? It’s like she is running in place.
