Observers of the just-concluded Edo 2020 National Sports Festival would not forget Ifiaezibe Gagbe in a hurry.<\/p>\n

Gagbe was the Bayelsa swimmer and star of the national tourney who carted home 15 medals.<\/p>\n

The dark-complexioned swimmer has narrated how swimming cost her her marriage.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel so happy winning eight gold medals and 15 medals in all. It\u2019s like I\u2019m the only one that came for the competition. Words can\u2019t actually describe the way I feel.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s all about the money because the last Governor of Bayelsa State paid N1m for a gold medal. The current Governor has not told us what he will pay, but he told us we should go to Benin City, win gold<\/a> and see what he will reward us with. I know it will be better than the last one and I\u2019m already thinking about the money. It\u2019s the money that made me put in much effort and what that means is that I\u2019m N8m richer, excluding the silver and bronze medals,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

On why she opted for swimming out of all the available sports, Gagbe explained that she grew up by the riverside and started swimming as a child.<\/p>\n

According to Sunday PUNCH, the swimmer went professionally in 2002 when she participated in the age group competition in Ilorin at the age of 12 years.<\/p>\n

When asked about her boyfriend or lover, she shrugged before saying she currently has none.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo, I don\u2019t have a boyfriend at the moment, but I was once married. That was in 2015 but we divorced in 2018. I went to the Abuja 2018 National Sports Festival with that trauma because he didn\u2019t want me to go back to my sport. I had a baby and my weight was too much for me to return to swimming and I struggled.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was against me swimming again, but I went back to doing it and we had some issues after that, which led to our divorce. I went to the 2018 festival with a lot of trauma and I won 14 silver medals, I didn\u2019t win any gold. I was so angry because I am a golden girl. So, this time, with my mind settled, I came to Edo and became the golden girl that I am,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Gagbe also expressed worry about settling down again following the trauma of her divorce.<\/p>\n

\u201cI honestly don\u2019t know, but I know I have to settle down again because I need another baby. Maybe when I see a guy who looks responsible I will give it a thought because there is no harm in trying.<\/p>\n

\u201cBeing without a man and not having sex has helped me a lot, but sometimes it\u2019s not because of sex that athletes don\u2019t perform. It has to do with how hard they train because that is the key to every success in life. When you have sex and you train hard, you can still perform at your best but everything still has to be done in moderation,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
