More than 400 Nigerian "Journalists" applied for accreditation to cover the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow - at least 85% were rejected.
After receiving an unprecedented number of requests from Nigeria, the media team of the LOC handed out an initial 26 approvals, then circled back to the Nigerian Olympic Committee (NOC), to help identify who are legitimate Nigerian journalists.
If we are being honest , there's no way over 400 people who applied for accreditation are all journalists.
Even if they are journalists, there's no way the LOC would approve half of those numbers from one country.
Let's get to it, we have an antecedent. At the last Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, over "700 journalists" applied for accreditation. While a lot of them got approved to cover it, this would lead to future problems, because their subsequent actions "collapsed the bridge for those coming after."
Four years ago, the Commonwealth Games LOC helped directly with visas. There were no payments for visa; what all approved Journos needed to do, was go to the UK consulate and capture their biometrics.
So you know what happened? A lot of people carried along their families or friends who weren't journalists. This is why the number ballooned to over 700. People bearing the same surnames registered as journalists working for the same media company.
Then, some of these people got to Birmingham, and never returned to Nigeria. Some who did, overstayed their visas.
Four years later, the number dropped down to around 450 applications. But from experience, they already know that most of these people aren't really journalists. This led to a spate of rejections. Also, no more visa assistance this time around. You will have to pay and do it yourself.
Nigeria carried its 'anyhowness' to the Commonwealth Games, and now, legitimate journalists are paying the price.
The Glasgow media LOC sent the Nigerian list back to Nigeria, identifying those issued, and those not given, telling Nigeria to advise them on legitimate journalists who should get. Then they approved more from the initial 26 given. Even the Nigerian Sports Commission (NSC) had to be directly involved with vetting the list.
I learnt that almost 30 people applied from one digital TV station in Lagos. If we are to tell ourselves the truth, there's no media outfit in Nigeria, that sends more than 5 staff to cover an international sports championship.
Nigerians are the ones soiling the country's reputation with some of these acts. We really need to fix ourselves and our country.
