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

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

  5. 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.

  8. 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
