The lady who ran the last lap put up a winning performance. Congratulations
The lady on the final leg for Nigeria.....OMG!!!!!!!
Never giving up, until you win. That is the spirit of Naija!!!!!!🎉
Waow !..... What a relentless spirit !... I ❤ that spirit in her.
They all tried, but the lady in last leg was the hero.
Very commendable act of patriotism. Team Nigeria 🎉
The lady that handled the last leg for Nigeria is fantastic.
That's the spirit of 9ja
That was a dangerous last leg from our Naija girl 😮😮 What a comeback 👏
What a comeback of the century. The commentator himself was astonished.
At some point, In the last round I wasn't seeing the Nigeria athletes but Gbam she just run the game of her life. That last lady is Golden
Same here. It seemed the gap was much. I wonder how she came from behind to still win it
Our babe saw the light at the end of tunnel and went for it. What a finish! God bless Nigeria!
🤣🤣🤣
The two Nigerian ladies try more than the two men in that relay
Nigerian ladies are not to be compared with other African women. Our ladies are at least at 70% strength of other african men strength... 💪
that's because the female 40m runners are usually the ones that represent us in the event on the world stage so that is not surprising.
Unbelievable.... Covering such space, she really deserves more than just 🏅
Nigerians...never giving up... the real Naija spirit...
3rd runner for Nigeria almost screwed things up...but Kudos to the last female runner...wow.
Wow.the Nigerian athlete(the lady) that did that last lap for Nigeria was incredible..the way she overtook and finished strong ,securing the win for Nigeria is amazing
Sweet victory!
Big congrats to Nigerian ladies Bostwanian team needs to appreciate the lady who came second She fought but couldn't end at they wished. Yet, they left her even the Kenyans were celebrating with their team mate who won the bronze. It is unpatriotic attitude for the Bostwanian team. The lady was on the floor and none of them could come near her.
True wanted to say the same..
I'm from Kenya and we appreciated our position.
Felt bad for the botswanan that her team left heron the ground.
She did try and gave it her all
Nigeria saved the best for the last and it payoff.
Reminds me of Innocent Egbunike at the All Africa Games in Nairobi, I think it was 1987. He chased down his opponent and had a wide gap to cover but managed to do it on the line. The then Kenyan President, Daniel Arab Moi called him Innocent Ebgunike the great of Africa after the race. Proudly Nigerian!
Amazing,what a come back from the Nigeria girl that run the last leg
I have watched this race so many times I am never tired of watching it. Team Nigeria was leading 1st, and 2nd leg, Our 3rd leg blew our lead, then enter Omolara Ogunmakinju our Anchor leg pulled the Chestnut out of the fire turned a potential silver, to a very golden Gold! Kudos Omolara!!👏👏👏👏👍👍✊👏
I have replaying it as well. It's beautiful to watch
Naija anchor woman wey sabi! Super proud of you Omolara Ogunmakinju . You and the team literally wrote your names in gold. Well done Team Nigeria!
Never give up in life as long as you're living
Never give up in life as long as you breathe
This is an incredible last leg. Kudos to the team Nigeria. That's why it's called team game. Weak and strong helping each other😊
They deserve more than Nigeria football 🥰🥰🥰 OMG! 😱 wow
I'm a proud Nigerian
That was a crazy comeback from Nigeria
Really crazy and unbelievable comeback. Wow!!!!!
Wow! Great race. It's not easy
The victory is sweeter when you realize that the Nigerian anchor leg just resumed to the track after taking a four year break to birth 2 kids. Good to see that it's still in her. She has always been a 400m champ. Up Naija 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬 a lovely nation of champions. We no dey gree for anybody this year.
I don't think the Spectors or any of us viewing this ever saw that coming. I mean the gap has been widening and some of us have concluded Nigeria would be second. But 50m to the end is one of the most resilient stunt I've seen anyone pull. That's a never say it's over until it's over fighting spirit. Congratulations to team Nigeria, well-done guys. Naija for life!
Interesting performance and tireless efforts of the women is wow! Kudos to you all.
Nigeria 🇳🇬🇳🇬 is a big name
Naija spirit
Absolutely amazing. The last lap was beautiful to watch.
How did the Nigerian come to win with so much gap
Congratulations 🎊🎊 to the winner 👍👍💪💪🎉🎉
Ghanaian never Sabi 😂😂you the spirit is different.. 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬👆😁😁
The last girl for Nigeria is the real example of never say die, love u girl
Indefatigable!
I'm from Kenya but felt a little bit sad for the botswanan that was left on the ground.
Her team would at least show some appreciation..
This is Africa and we are all winners
Yes, I noticed that :(
They were disappointed in her but they need to realize that she gave her best. It was actually, the 3rd leg Nigerian that gave Botswana the lead. He was Nigeria's weakest link and horribly slow!!
That 3rd athlete from Nigeria was heavy. He almost cost Nigeria. Thanks to the others especially the last female
Hi how many goid for Kenya 🇰🇪
Naija no the carry last. That girl that ran the last lap is our Hero. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What a race! Proud of team Nigeria ❤🎉
Outstanding!!
The effort of the last member of the Nigerian team is credible and a motivation
🇳🇬 🇳🇬 🇳🇬 🇳🇬 🇳🇬 🇳🇬
Good one Team Nigeria ❤❤❤❤
Kenya🙌🙌
What a speed 🏃🏃😋🤸🤸
Good race & congrats to Naija.
What a remarkable last lap run from the Nigerian female sprinter...that's the true spirit of 9ja!!!
Great performance 😀
Congrats to Nigeria!
Wtf 🤨🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬😱😱😱😱😱💪💪💪💪💪
I saw Nigerian patriotism! Carry it higher, you will shine in the darkest night!
The guy that ran the third leg needs to do better. All other athletes were remarkable except for the third leg. But that lady that took the last leg was exceptional. She needs to start competing against the likes of Paulinha, Miller Uibo and other world top 400m athletes
Last person omg kudos
kenya kabisa👏👏👏
Well done sikiru and Rachel
Since l was born
Nigeria 🇳🇬 no dey carry last....
~400meters Relay race✅✅
~African cup of Nations 2ND❌❌
wow....naija to the world a.k.a NO GREE FOR ANYBODY.
Please does anyone know the name of that last lady that ran for team Nigeria
Omolara Omotosho
o boi that girl in the last leg is a boss
All of them tried not easy.Even the 3rd person for Nigeria just that the last leg of Botswana was good at the first 200m that's why she gave that gap but her finishing was poor that was why the last leg of Nigeria overtook her.Although that was incredible come back.❤❤❤❤
Where did that come from?
Nigerian female athletes ran better than the males. Team work; job well done
The last runner actually tried
Who was the last girl for Nigeria?? Wow wow she is amazing 🥶🥶
Tswanas did not even bother with their last runner. She ha practically won the race and started running backward.
i had botswana winning easy before the race began...lol what happened to the anchor runner?
Refresh your camera man not to focus on the leading park alone....we need the whole field
Exactly!
Shouldn't it be African Games 2024?
I wish that nigerian lady could have run head to head with our moraa from kenya,angetoa ulimi kama tai
The handover from Nigeria 's 2nd to 3rd wasn't smooth nor fast. Wasted some time, which widened the gap between Botswana's 3rd runner and Nigeria's. However, the Botswana's 3rd runner is a faster runner than Nigeria's. A smoother changeover from 2nd to 3rd would have reduced the distance to be covered by Omolara, which would have meant less work and easier win for her and the team.
Well done to all the team members! They did marvellously well.
Very poor work from the cameraman, keeping the camera trained on those who have already finished the race instead of shifting focus to the battle for third place.
Nobody went for that Botswana lady for a very long time, too bad
No Gree for anybody Pro Max.
That naija guy lazy 😂
it wasnt a comeback.. the leader died in the end
Commentator needs more training 😂😂😂
Her hair weighs more than her entire body
The moment I observed the last runner for Nigeria is a Yoruba girl, I knew she would chased the girl leading to the end. Those people from South West are criminally underated in Nigeria especially when it comes to bringing honour and respect to Nigeria in international competitions both in academics and sports
Must everything be ethnicized?
It is not advisable to bring ethnicity into this, Favour Ofili or Rosemary Chukwuma wouldn't have tried less. There have been stories of excellence from every part of Nigeria.
Forget ethnicity ....she's Nigerian. EOD
Tribal bigot at its peak. Learn to appreciate people not their tribe. Do better next time.
Abeg no start 🙄
What a performance from the last Lady that turned potential Silver Medal to Gold. Kudos to the Coach for making her the Anchor runner of the team Nigeria 4X400m
