Teenage Nigerian weightlifter Augustina Nkem Nwaokolo has won the first gold medal of the 2010 Commonwealth Games in Delhi in the women's 48kg division. The 17-year-old set a new Games record of 175kg after lifting 77kg in the snatch and 98kg in the clean and jerk to upset home favourite Soniya Chanu. The Indian twice failed to lift the 103kg she needed to take gold and had to settle for silver with 167kg. Fellow Indian Sandhya Rani finished third with an aggregate of 165kg.

All you posters, why always negative and salacious comments full of innuendos. She is under strain and stress. haven't you noticed that the athletes look so pretty/handsome when you see them on the podium - so different from when they are actually running, jumping etc. If you were to see a pix of her in relaxation mode she would look younger/prettier. Besides haven't you met people who look younger/older than their ages?? Pls give us a break. |
Re: Nigerian Has Won The First Gold Of The 2010 Commonwealth Games In Delhi - Pic by UyiIredia(m): 1:47pm On Oct 05, 2010 |
@ marjo >>> abegi, the girl wowo for the pic >>> her being under stress is of no consequence to me |
Re: Nigerian Has Won The First Gold Of The 2010 Commonwealth Games In Delhi - Pic by Yorisb: 1:52pm On Oct 05, 2010 |
U dey mind 'am? As if I've never lifted some weights before |

Well done Miss Nwaokolo, at least some good news out of 9ja for a change. |
Re: Nigerian Has Won The First Gold Of The 2010 Commonwealth Games In Delhi - Pic by kokoye(m): 2:10pm On Oct 05, 2010 |
She looks younger than the other medalists in my opinion . . but who cares anyway.

Congratulations,Nigeria! but of course she cant be 17. and dont blame us for our insecurity . .we cant possibly trust anyone anymore after all of our issues. . . |
Re: Nigerian Has Won The First Gold Of The 2010 Commonwealth Games In Delhi - Pic by kokoye(m): 2:22pm On Oct 05, 2010 |
^^^ The title of this thread does not say anything about her being 17 . . .and this competition has nothing to do with age. You got your own issues |
Re: Nigerian Has Won The First Gold Of The 2010 Commonwealth Games In Delhi - Pic by Ranoscky(m): 2:45pm On Oct 05, 2010 |

Re: Nigerian Has Won The First Gold Of The 2010 Commonwealth Games In Delhi - Pic by kokoye(m): 2:55pm On Oct 05, 2010 |
^^^ 'Adigun' is not a Nigerian, I guess. |

Whats you guys problem about age? Is Nigeria the only culprit? This is why Nigeria is not progressing at all but you destructively criticize every thing. Na wa for you guys o! |
Re: Nigerian Has Won The First Gold Of The 2010 Commonwealth Games In Delhi - Pic by deekseen(m): 5:34pm On Oct 05, 2010 |
Since she contested for the 48kg and not the 17 years old category i think she did well and deserved the gold, and some people who have not done anything good for their streets should just shut up and clap. Does anyone know how Onyeka Azike fared? |
Re: Nigerian Has Won The First Gold Of The 2010 Commonwealth Games In Delhi - Pic by jacob05(m): 8:41pm On Oct 05, 2010 |
17 she looks 30 |
Re: Nigerian Has Won The First Gold Of The 2010 Commonwealth Games In Delhi - Pic by ajileko: 8:51pm On Oct 05, 2010 |
Hey look here guys, Commonwealth Games is not a age group events. Everybody is competing at the same level (15 - 100yrs). And as for the facial expression, this is what happens when you push your physical capability to the limit and it has nothing to do with age. Very good job, Augustina Nkem Nwaokolo. |
