Samuel Ikpefan: The skier from a country without snow

Apparently Sam is the entire Nigerian team. I did wonder about funding but he made it happen!

    Thanks for sharing! I'll look out for Sam (or has he already competed?).

      I was looking this morning and so far I think he hasn't competed yet!

      He has worked so hard (as they all have) and it's still ongoing so I will keep checking for him!

    Two things:
    Good for him for following his dream.
    And he's gorgeous.

    I looked for him in the opening ceremonies, but then there was a volunteer flag carrier. How exciting for you to watch for your friends son.

      Yes it wasn't him carrying the flag but I keep watching out for him!

    What an inspiring young man. I hope he does well. I rarely watch sport so the olympics is passing me by but I look forward to hearing from you how he gets on. x

      I don't mind the downhill skiing but don't really watch the cross country. I keep checking though and will let you know!
