How Nigeria Lost Out To Egypt


As events at the 10th All Africa Games in Mozambique came to a colourful end, Egypt delivered a sucker punch on our own Team Nigeria, dislodging it from second position. Nigeria and Tunisia, for long, were in a close-knit chase for the second position but the Egyptians sprung a surprise to overtake Nigeria with just one gold medal. They hauled 32 gold, 14 silver and 20 bronze medals as against Nigeria’s 31 gold, 28 silver and 39 bronze medals.

Team Nigeria thus finished in third position, even as Team South Africa expectedly topped the medals table with 61 gold, 55 silver and 40 bronze medals... But na wa o; LWKMD. See how Big Brother dey pursue Small Brother like Olodo! Anyway, our people try small. At least they came back with third position.
