The Nigerian athlete, Tobi Amusan, had been observed to weep over the national anthem of shame and stolen heroism by the Nigerian government at the reception of the gold medal she won at the 2022 World Athletics Championships in Oregon, USA.

Bishop Edwins pointed out that “When Tobi Amusan climbed the stage of the 2022 World Athletics Championships to pick up the Gold medal, she had no tears streaming down her eyes.

“Then the national anthem of Nigeria was played. Tears rolled down her eyes!”
According to Bishop Edwins, “Tobi Amusan remembered how a country that refused to sponsor its athletes was enjoying stolen heroism.

“How criminal politicians will steal her personal efforts for their own social media publicity but none even came to her aid on the road to Oregon, USA.”
Bishop Edwins maintained: “Tobi remembered the Ministry of Youth and Sports that dropped them in the middle of nowhere, no allowances, no proper care; was going to take an applause they didn’t deserve.

“Tobi Amusan cried as the anthem of shame was played. How the country made them look like thieves, bandits and Unknown Gun Athletes as they were humiliated from one drug check to another.

“She remembered the particular incident of how they slept at the airport lounge on arrival and had to move straight to the open fields without care until some richer athletes dipped hands into their pockets and did an “akawo” to help out because Nigeria and the embassy never had a proper arrangement in place for them!

“She was worried that instead of going back to the hotel to rest and celebrate her gold medal, she is going back to wash the one track suit and jerseys that a country as rich as Nigeria offered them.”

Bishop Edwins further highlighted that “at a point, she looked round the whole stadium to at least wave to her fans, but realised that there was no “Green and White fan” anywhere in the stadium. Nigeria has sent no soul to cheer them up but the budgets at home are filled with monies for fans, which the Ministers and their girlfriends have looted and collected, travelled with the team to the USA to squander in various malls and hotels while the athletes run their lives out on the tracks.”

He stated that “as the anthem got to that line of “one Nation bound in Freedom…” she saw herself like a liar. Lying to the whole world about a Freedom and a one nation that doesn’t exist. How the youths are being incarcerated, either in the hands of the government or in the hands of bandits.

“Tobi tried to hold back tears…but how possible was it; when Nigerian youths are talking about voting in the next president who said they should not worry about the exchange rate. That their salaries will be paid in Naira while here, she is receiving $100,000…”

Bishop Edwins also pointed out: “Tobi Amusan knows that her neck can hang more medals and more youths in Nigeria can do more, but they don’t want to come to the track and fields; they just want to eat agbado and cassava! Create demand and consumption and then enjoy sexually transmitted Unity from any Unifier.”
