ARAB COUNTRIES IN THE OLYMPICS DESPITE THE GAME BEING ASSOCIATED WITH GREEK GODS: LESSON FOR NIGERIAN
In nearly 100 years of Olympic competition, the combined tally of medals won by all Arab countries is 73. At 22 countries, the Arab nations constitute almost 11 per cent of the total number of participating nations (204).
The participating countries in this year's edition include:
Bahrain 🇧🇭
Egypt 🇪🇬
Iran 🇮🇷
Iraq 🇮🇶
Jordan 🇯🇴
Kuwait 🇰🇼
Libya 🇱🇾
Niger 🇳🇪
Mauritania 🇲🇷
Morocco 🇲🇦
Pakistan 🇵🇰
Palestine 🇵🇸
Qatar 🇶🇦
Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦
Sudan 🇸🇩
Turkey 🇹🇷
UAE 🇦🇪
Yemen 🇾🇪
Don't let us forget that the word Olympics is associated with Olympian gods of the Greeks. It seems the entire Arab world are not as pious as Nigerian, Yorùbá Muslims or how can they participate in a game that is associated with the gods? Or the gods of the Greeks are not as fetish as the gods of the Africans and Yorùbás?
It is obvious average Yorùbá Alfa is suffering from two incurable mental infections. The first is Arab via Fulani colonialism and the second is western colonialism. He strives to reject western colonialism by embracing Arabofulanic colonialism.
That is why we are telling our government to help develop world celebrations too like World Twins Celebration that happens in Igbo-ọrà. With enough packaging and paparazzi, Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 will send her twins as delegate to the celebration in the future.
Government should please look at the potentials and not listen to people suffering from double colomentality.
