The tale of woes for Team Nigeria continued on Thursday with world record holder Tobi Amusan failing to qualify for the final of the 100m hurdles event.

Amusan finished third in her Heat with a time of 12.55 seconds.

Having missed out on the two automatic spots, she was hoping to sneak through as one of the fastest losers.

Unfortunately the time wasn’t enough to see Amusan earn a spot in the last eight.

Amusan, the 100m Hurdles World Record holder, made a statement at the Paris 2024 Olympics, winning her heat and advancing to the semifinals with a blistering time of 12.49 seconds on Wednesday. However, she failed to improve on that in Friday’s semi-final.

They should place embargo on sports in this country unfortunately, the commander in chief needs to place embargo on himself

With all the hope and noise Tobi couldn't make it to the finals Sad 💔
Next time remain humble when it involves Nigeria. We are good for nothing

The worst Olympic performance in recent history...not even one medal. I am not superstitious but it's difficult not to link Tinubu with bad luck....kilode.

One man takes over and everything good went bad and everything bad became worse...within a year o!

Too bad.

That's only you


I and other people that accept this are good and better for great things!

Nawa o

I laugh when Nigerians celebrate victory… we’re so used to living in a fools paradise. We depend on grace so much that’s why we can never move forward. Best bet is to leave this hellhole or politics and milk the nation dry.

The green and white will continue to witness international Shame, digrace and failure of monumental proportional. Nizooria will never be able to do what the worst country on earth can do. Tilumbu's anthem will never be sang outside the zoo. The country's internal degradation will happen simultaneously with the battering of it's already degraded global image until it disintegrates. This is because nizooria is under a curse. Sorry is the name of anyone who tries to bring glory to the zoo.

I was laughing when the beleaguered tilumbu was expecting his yo**ba sister to win a medal to use it for image laundering.

Everything in Nigeria is failing woefully under evil APC watch.

From lack of adequate preparation....

To not ing athletes on time...

To borrowing bicycle from Germans....

APC is a curse to Nigeria and it shall never be well with all the imbecilic Nonentities defending them.

No joy anywhere in this country. It's so sad really. Normally, heads should roll, but we all know it's chop I chop this country is all about.

No Sector in Nigeria is Spared from this current istration, not even the Sports Nigerians used to console themselves with.

How can we take 88 Athletes to the Olympics and come back with nothing, not even a bronze medal.

While Nigerian Athletes representing other countries are performing wonders like Salwa of Bahrain, Adeleke of Ireland and Nneka the Hammer Silver medalist for USA.

Such a pity Nigeria is ending with zero medals on the table. The country has deteriorated to the point of no return. Fed up honestly

200 MILLION POPULATION, NO SINGLE MEDAL.

THE DIFFERENT SPORTS ASSOCIATION IN THE COUNTRY SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS SHAMBOLIC OUTING.

Nigeria is just very unlucky at this Olympic, honestly I’m disappointed

Quite unfortunate and the Nigerian 4x400m men got disqualified after qualifying for finals

So no Gold medal for Nigeria in this Olympic Games

So when folks say the world record was a fluke Nigerians will start having erection like they wanna have sex.
Never seen a world record holder disappoint like this

Ohh no. Sad to hear that, Tobi was like our brightest hope of a medal. Gold for that matter.

Our hopeful for the gold medal didn't make it.So unfortunate,Tobi.

No single medal for Nigeria in this year's Olympics

When she started fixing acrylic nails, fake eyelashes and pierced her belly button,

thats when I knew, the former Tobi of Deeper life, life don spoil

This is the end of her career.

Sorry

I thought she came 3rd

Declare state of emergency on sport please

She got too relaxed. She's lazy and older now.

Country where things look dilapidated and only corruption works, how do you expect success..
