You know how we’ve been saying Nigerian women are doing amazing things? They really are!
The winter Olympics usually take place during winter, and most African countries don’t participate because African athletes are not used to the snowy weather. Just like the Paralympians made history and broke records, three amazing women are set to make history and do Nigeria proud!
Seun Adigun, Ngozi Onwumere and Akuoma Omeoga want to represent Nigeria at the Winter Olympic Games, Pyeongchang, South Korea in 2018.

The girls will be representing Nigeria in the Bobsled category. In Seun Adigun’s words:
“The success of this bobsled team will positively affect millions of people all over the world and will represent monumental international advancements in social, athletic, and economic statuses. Together, we can demonstrate that nothing is impossible with a little faith, support and willingness to persevere.”

The girls have opened a “GoFundMe” to raise $150,000. You can donate to this worthy cause here and help them reach their goals.
