Olympic Games: Sporting officials under pressure after Nigeria wins no medals in Paris

# Olympic Games: Nigerian sporting officials are under pressure from accusations of incompetence and calls for reform after the country failed to win any medals in Paris. While smaller nations on the continent came home with multiple medals, the giant of Africa left empty-handed for the first time since the 2012 London Olympics. A day after the Paris Games closed, former and current Olympians lashed out at the country’s sporting federations, calling for a shakeup in organisations they say failed their athletes.
