Even Brume too!!??? The lady that won bronze at the last Olympics in Tokyo!!?? 3 Nigerians in the final and the 3 finished as the last 3 (5th, 6th & 7th).
Chai! NOC and AFN never prepared for this Olympics. If I be Tinubu, I would have sacked the board right now and suspended the whole damn thing! In fact, 20% of the staff will remain after thorough vetting.
At this rate, I’ll be surprised if Tobi wins gold in 100m hurdles event. I’m seriously having doubts now.
