I would love to see her play a bunch of other sports, perhaps under center? Or maybe actually center!
Hockey would probably be entertaining, maybe competitive cliff diving.
Shut up
Yeah. Actually, she can now make a tiktok or YouTube channel. Definitely, it would be watched the world over. 😅
@Jisha Sen who asked
My understanding was that she was in a different sport and stepped in to do this race so her country wouldn’t be disqualified due to their regular runners being injured. Is that not the case?
No she the niece of the head of athletics commission. She was picked because of family ties. The country is family buisness 😂😂
That’s a different person
Nope that’s not the case it’s just corruption 😞
The current president Hassan sheikh mohamoud is the most corrupted individual
He employed his daughter as foreign affairs
And over rides other ministers when asked he publicly said I recommend other ministers do the same thing..
He steels money..he did before sadly he was reelected by other crooks and stabbed the country back
She said she has been training for a month 😅 this is what tribalism does to your country 😊
It’s the lil skip at the end for me😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😅😂🤣 me to
Reminds me of elementary school field day.
She was told to get herself a pie and she took a wrong turn 😂
Did you see how slow that white girl was?
She’s probably thankful that the Somali girl participated
@Spring’s Bliss…la ragazza euripide ( dire bianco è razzista) ha corso come meglio poteva con cura del suo corpo , i giochi atletici olimpici sono un omaggio a gli Dei a cui si offre il meglio che uno può.
Per questo la ragazza somala è un offesa anche per tutte le altre amazzoni
Wrong girl
@genarosalazar2818 nah ita the right one. She is actually an athlete whose supposed to be there. That’s embarrassment
at least she won world new record, congratulations uncle 👏 🎉 we’re proud of you
You commented on two of the videos I saw abt this
She was so slow a short video was long.
She needs to talk to Hector about a spoon engine upgrade.
NAW
Reminds me of the competitive mums on sports day 😂
Who asked 🐀
@BeautifulRia🌸I asked 😏
@Sponge Bob as if u did
She eats too much sambuusas, baasto, and isku-dheh karis 😂
Murife, don’t run! Murife!
instead of criticism you should defend your country whatever
@faysal muuse — where are you from? What is there to defend? I don’t even care about her entry into the event. I just need her to get in shape even if not for athleticism. Normal non-athletes can even run that in a better time. She is a sloth.
Did she ever run in her life , ever??
Eppure ci sono i leoni in Somalia 😂
At least the great Africa nation hold an Record that will stand for a VERY long time!😂😂😂😂😅😅😅
We should be winning 10k as east Africa always dominated this field but unfortunately our minister doesn’t look talent but relative he is disgrace and should be arrested for corruption.
omg she’s such an embarrassment 🤦🏽♀️
As a somalian wtf was that. Who did this
Shame for the country that sent her there , corruption at its worst,
@faysal muuseno way thats an error
@faysal muusemo farah runs for uk not somalia tho. We cant claim him just cos he was born there😂 this clown is the best somalia has to offer apparently 🙈 corruption and nepotism /tribalism is Somalia’s downfall unfortunately
@faysalmuuse7026 what error? They smoked weed before selection? 😂
@faysal muuseWho are you kidding? Ma Ajanabiga been usheegaysaa?
😂😂😂😂. I find it funny that people around the world are taking Somalia serious.
Well, the country is led by a president who’s daughter has 2-3 ministerial posts, he’s relatives are scattered in many government positions and the lady sprinter is related to the sports minister. So good morning people and smell the corruption.
The biden administrations way of EQUITY!
It’s only a race not that serious school kids do it everyday just look in the playgrounds LOL
She’s going to be huge people, just wait. A bright future.
😂😂
Bro what are you talking about😂
If she ate some chat earlier she would have been faster
Hahahahahhahahahahahahahaha dfkm
as somalia sports ministry claims this was an error for selection her to participate this marathon, many members has been resigned for this issue, you have to keep in mind that worlds most popular runners is from Somalia like mo farah and many other scholars.
next we will select our best athletic runners.
there is famous Somalia girl runner which breaks many records in the word.
love from 🇸🇴 🇸🇴 🇸🇴
what a stupid country
Lo importante es participar
No! La regola olimpica greco-romana, il secondo è solo il primo degli sconfitti 🎉
😂😂😂
Love it!
The way she stoop up off the blocks was like Sacha Baron Cohen in The Dictator… the only things missing were a gun and the line being moved closer.
Poor soul.
この人なりに一生懸命走ってるじゃん！
Dei della gurrra Marte e Minerva non scatenate la vostra ira per questo insulto , l’ Olimpo piange.
Perché corre con la tuta da subacqueo?
I agree that the sports minister should be suspended – from a light pole in front of the ministry…..
Including the whole delegation
c est d’un ridicule
😂😂😂😂This is funny
AS SOMALI WE ARE PROUD OF HER …SHE GOT THE SLOWEST RECORD RUN OF THE WORLD….LIFE IS NOT PERFECT…GOOD JOB GIRL .
At least you’re honest.
you are bad at everything 😄
Strana questa cosa 😮.
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 I’m speechless
I can’t laughing
The slowest sprinter in the world happens to be the fastest woman in somalia.. 😂😂😂
Note:
100 year old Japanese woman sprint 100m in 22.25.
Fastest woman in Somalia sprint 100m in 22.81
She’s already made a World Record. The slowest time in 100m history 😂😂😂
I bet you there are faster ladies than her
I thought she was going as fast as an AK 47 bullets …
Meu primeiro dia de esteira kkkkkkkk
My grandma can run faster and she has been dead for over 10 years 🤦🏽♂️
She looks happy
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 🤷🏽♀️
She even has the guts to jump after the finished line 😂😂😂
Back in Somalia she is the fastest 😂😂😂
No its because of corruption sadly 😢
Зачем было так позорить себя и всё страну в которой ты живёшь ,она должна была заранее отказаться от участия в этих соревнованиях знала же что не сможет бегать зачем было вообще выходить туда 😡😡😡😡👎👎👎👎
His little girl one day decided she wants to be an athlete 🤨
So instead of years and years of training he hooked her up😅😂🤣
She got injury. That’s why muscle popped up.😂😂
Aladdin from Dictator
Only guns are missing
She was sprinting nepotism with high-speed
Fighting ❤
Welcome to the era of stupid people and their act of stupidity. Hats off to “how can u even think of sending someone like her” in the first place.
N9jjjj
衝撃的ですね。小学校の保護者競技？
She’s mildly retarded.
I have never laughed this much
When you concentrate more on religion than sports.
