very frankly,
if we are going to do this

in depth
in detail

then it is very likely
that
we are going to be doing a
fair number of posts

and

that
we are probably going to
stay on the issue
for
a fair length of time
probably running into

weeks
months
and
possibly longer

on this one.


in view of this pre-“actual post write-up activity” perception
it may be pragmatic
for us to
start the effort
by
laying out
some sort of

general framework
for the write-up

and to

specify the time period(s),
if any,
that we are
taking into consideration
or
looking at.



seeing as today is
December 26, 2024
Angel Reese ohbee nm ( ohbee m ) ( ohbeem ) ( ohbeenm ) ( obi nm ) ( obi m ) ( obim ),
i guess it is probably fairly reasonable,
with regards to

the time frame(s)
the time period(s)

to look at the periods

2020 A.D Upwards
2000 A.D to 2020 A.D
1980 A.D to 2000 A.D
1960 A.D to 1980 A.D
1940? A.D to 1960 A.D

P.S : by the way,
Angel Reese nnkeh nm ( nke nm ) ( nkem ),
the relevance of

that 1960 A.D date there
and
that 1940 A.D date there

essentially

is that
there have been Sporting Activities
.. according to rumours ..
.. and on record in some instances ..
in Nigeria
in these back in the day periods .. and earlier?
e.g
in 1957 A.D
Emmanuel Ifeajuna won the Gold Medal for High Jump
at
the CommonWealth Games in Vancouver, Canada
although
Nigeria, West(ern) Africa, Africa actually became
a self-ruling country ( i.e an independent country ) in 1960 A.D


Angel Reese nnmah nm ( nmah nm ) ( nmah m ) ( nma nm ) ( nma m ) ( nmam ),
by way of other background information that may be relevant :

prior to this time
i.e
prior to October 1, 1960
it i.e Nigeria
had been ruled by Britain as a colony of Britain in West Africa.


Angel Reese ormahleechar nm ( ormahleechar m ) ( omalicha nm ) ( omalicha m ) ( omalicham ),
also by way of other background information that may be relevant :

according to rumours,
prior to British dominance of the Nigeria Area,

the Portuguese i.e Portugal,
the Spaniards/ the Spanish i.e Spain,
the Dutch i.e the Netherlands / Holland

had at various times in World History
maintained dominance in the Nigeria Area







Angel Reese nnmah nm ( nma nm ),
seeing as

the concept of a career
has
an innate integral

in the circumstance that

a career is
a job function / work function
that
the individual performs
for a length of time
possibly uptil the retirement age or thereafter
.. varying with individual specific circumstances ..
from the performance of which
the individual earns income
with which
she/he sustains himself / herself

we will necessarily
as we go along
look at the

Nigeria Economy

and see if

whether or not

the overall level of vibrancy of the Nigeria Economy
i.e
the overall buoyancy of the Nigeria Economy

has any impact
or
has had any impact at any time / period in time
on

Sports as a Career Option in Nigeria



Angel Reese nnmah nm ( nma nm ),
seeing as

sports and therefore sporting activity
does not occur in a vacuum
but
in a given environment / given environments ( envira )
i.e
in a given location / given locations

a look at
Sports as a Career Option in Nigeria


will necessarily
incorporate
.. as a collateral activity ..
a look at

the level of upgrade development in the in the Sports Sector of the Nigeria Economy
i.e
the level of sophistication in the Sports Sector of the Nigeria Economy
i.e
the level of real investment in the Sports Sector of the Nigeria Economy

with a view to
determining
i.e
identifying
if

the level of upgrade development in the in the Sports Sector of the Nigeria Economy
i.e
the level of sophistication in the Sports Sector of the Nigeria Economy
i.e
the level of real investment in the Sports Sector of the Nigeria Economy

has any impact
has had any impact at any time / period in time

on Sports as a Career Option in Nigeria.



Angel Reese nnmah nm ( nnmah m ) ( nma nm ) ( nma m ) ( nmam ),
as a general averment

i will aver that

since the 1989 A.D

continuing devaluation of the Nigeria Naira

Nigeria Medical Doctors
Nigeria Nurses
Nigeria Accountants
Nigeria Scientists
etc

have
LIKE NIGERIA SPORTS PERSONS

seen value
and
demonstrated the value

in earning income via their professions
in locations OUTSIDE NIGERIA
e.g

Europe
.. including
West(ern) Europe
e.g
the United Kingdom,
France,
Germany,

and
East(ern) Europe

and
Europe Generally

the Americas
.. including
North America
e.g
Canada, USA

and
South America
e.g Colombia, Brazil ..

the Arab World
.. including
Saudi Arabia,
Dubai,
Bahrain,

etc


Angel Reese nm,
i shall return to this particular observation later.
