    Nigerian Cyclist Borrows Bicycle From German Team At Olympics

    By Peter Noah KCAugust 9, 2024
    Nigerian Cyclist

    IN a display of sportsmanship, Nigerian cyclist, Ese Lovina Ukpeseraye, received crucial support from the German cycling team during the Paris Olympics.

    BORNO PATRIOTS

    Ukpeseraye, representing Team Nigeria, found herself in a difficult situation when she had no bicycle to race with in the keirin and sprint events due to the short notice of her participation.

    “Due to the short notice of me competing at the keirin & Sprint, #teamNigeria I had no bicycle to race with on the tracks,” Ukpeseraye said in a post via her X handle on Thursday.

    However, the German team, Bund Deutscher Radfahrer, stepped in to assist the Nigerian athlete.

    “In the spirit of sportsmanship, the German team @bunddeutscherradfahr came to my rescue by offering me a bicycle. Thank you,” Ukpeseraye added.

    Ukpeseraye made history as the first Nigerian cyclist at the Olympics. She competed in the women’s road race but did not register a score after failing to complete the event.

    While she later took part in the Keirin and Sprint cycling event, ending sixth in the first round.

    This gesture of goodwill from the German team exemplifies the nature of the Olympic spirit, where athletes from different nations come together to support one another, regardless of their competitive rivalries.

    She will be competing in one more event on Friday.
