Nigeria Offers Cash Rewards for Paralympic Medals
News summary

Ahead of the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games, Nigeria's government announced financial rewards for medal winners, with $15,000 for gold, $10,000 for silver, and $5,000 for bronze, aiming to motivate athletes. Team Nigeria is currently training in Germany and is optimistic about competing in athletics, badminton, para-powerlifting, and para table tennis. Meanwhile, Team GB has donated equipment and food to French charities, expressing gratitude to their hosts. The Paris 2024 organizing committee reported over 1.7 million tickets sold for the Paralympic events, though they are still short of their revised target of 2.5 million. Prize money for medalists has become a new trend, with Team USA offering substantial rewards, while some countries, like Hong Kong, will provide less to their Paralympians. This shift in recognition highlights the growing importance of financial incentives in the Paralympic movement.
