2028 Olympics: Athlete urges early preparation

An athlete, Michael Godwin has called for early preparation for Nigerian athletes ahead of the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles, U.S.

Godwin made the call in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Monday in Lagos.

He said that early preparations would enhance the athletes` performances and place them in a better position for podium finishing at the Olympics.

the athlete said that Team Nigeria failed to win medals at the Paris Games because they did not prepare well ahead of the tournament.

Godwin, who has been an athlete for about four years, said that it was possible for athletes to engage in other jobs to make ends meet.

He said that the country`s athletes did not perform well at the Olympics because they did not have adequate training ahead of the Olympics.

”If their training was planned considering wellbeing and related factors, they would have done better than the results they had,“he said.

NAN reports that in spite of the N12 billion approved by the Federal Government, the athletes failed to win a medal at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.

88 athletes were on parade for Nigeria in 12 sports in Paris, the largest Nigeria has ever presented at the Olympics.(NAN)
