Weeks after Nigeria’s impressive outing at the Rio 2016 Paralympic Games, Team Nigeria Paralympic athletes have cried out to President Mohammadu Buhari to appreciate their performance.
Nigerian paralympians won 8 Gold, 2 Silver and 2 Bronze medals to redeem the country’s name after a shoddy outing at the Rio Olympics.
But one of the athletes, Lauritta Onye, who won gold said weeks after returning from Brazil, the Federal Government is yet to make any pronouncement on their performance.

Team Captain, Lucy Ejike who also won Gold pleaded with the Minister of Sports, Solomon Dalung to forward their case to President Buhari.
She said the athletes should be given the necessary recognition.

Heya! I know this is sort of off-topic but I had to ask. Does managing a well-established website such as yours take a massive amount work? I am brand new to writing a blog however I do write in my journal on a daily basis. I’d like to start a blog so I will be able to share my own experience and feelings online. Please let me know if you have any suggestions or tips for brand new aspiring blog owners. Thankyou!
