Opinion Poll : Sport, Nollywood & Afrobeats Unite Nigerians making us Ignore our Differences


By Femi Oke 

Sport, Nollywood & Afrobeats Unite Nigerians making us Ignore our Differences.


Yet as a Nation we have Failed to Harness our Abundant Sporting Talents towards Sporting Success and National Unity.


We lack Professionalism in Sports, which is bedevilled by Bad Management & Poor Administration, which is Bourne out in our Dismal showing so far in 2021 Tokyo Olympics. Nothing for Nigerians to Celebrate yet again.


Lesser Countries and others without the Abundant Talent are Overtaking Nigeria in almost all of our Natural Athletic Specialities.


It is Disheartening that we cannot even Savour Sporting Victories & Medals to lighten the Negativity that we read everyday in our Media which draws us Further Apart instead of Uniting Us.


There is Clearly Something missing in our Sport Management, anything run by Govt in Nigeria always Fails. This is a sad Indictment of Falling Standards and our Inability to move with the Times.


We need a Radical Rethink.of Funding, Administration & Management of Sports.


We should look at Developing a well Funded and Functional Sports Institute to develop Elite Athletes, Trainers, Managers, Administrators, Officials, Sports Medicine & Psychology 


Sports Wear & Sports Equipment need to be Manufactured in a Nigeria and Quality Maintained Sporting Facilities must be made Available for our Youth in all 774 Local Govts.


Regular Competition and Professional Leagues and Bodies must be Established to Create better Competition and Maintain Higher Standards.


Athletics, Boxing, Weightlifting, Wrestling, Football, Rugby, Cycling, Hockey, Basketball, Shooting, Table Tennis, Rowing, Climbing, Volleyball, Hand ball, Badminton, Judo, Taekwondo & Gymnastics


Are Sports in which we should be able to be Competitive in. Looking like another Barren Olympics for Team Nigeria. Africa in general has not do well either.
