IOC Orders Nigeria's Segun Toriola And Other Defeated Athletes To Leave Olympic City In 48 Hours

                                    

Based on Channels TV news reports, the International Olympics Committee (IOC) has issued a 48-hour deadline to athletes who were eliminated to quit London. The report also states that IOC’s communications director Mark Adams said the move is necessary to allow for effective monitoring of the remaining participants and ensure security for the on-going global sporting showpiece.
This development means team Nigeria’s table tennis quartet of Segun Toriola, Aruna Quadri, Funke Oshinaike and Offiong Edem would leave the games after they exited their events.
Also team Nigeria’s boxing duo of Muyideen Akanji and Lukman Lawal are also affected by the order after they suffered shock ousters from the games.
