Five Athletes Disqualified at Niger Delta Games
Five athletes were disqualified from the Niger Delta Games for eligibility breaches, including one who won five gold medals and one silver, all of which have been withdrawn. The disqualification follows investigations into age and residency violations. The Games Organizing Committee stated the athletes' results will be expunged from official records. This marks the second major doping and eligibility scandal at the event in two years, raising questions about the integrity of the competition.
