Chierika Ukogu
We are just so proud of Team Nigeria!
Chierika ‘Coco’ Ukogu, 23, the first person to represent Nigeria in Rowing at the Olympics, today qualified for the semifinals of the event.
Ukogu’s story is so inspiring because
she chose to represent her country, Nigeria, even without support. She
sponsored herself Olympics campaign through a GoFundMe Page she created.
She took it upon herself to get the
necessary training and preparation to make sure she displays peak
performance at the Olympics.
Nigerians have taken to Twitter to celebrate Ukogu and her worthy achievement.Go for Gold Ukogu!
