According to the table published on the website of the Games Organising Committee (COJA), so far 466 medals have been awarded at the 10th All-Africa Games in Maputo.
Of these, 131 (28 per cent) have been won by South Africa, due largely to South Africa prowess in the swimming pool, where it won 74 medals.
Algeria is still in second position, with 51 medals, but Nigeria has now moved into third position, with 47 medals. This is partly due to Nigerian dominance of the badminton tournament, in which Nigerian players won 12 medals.
But the medals table published by COJA is woefully out of date. It does not include any of the medals won on Tuesday, or even on Monday evening. It is thus 48 hours behind the reality of the games.
For example, it does not include the Nigerian triumph in the women’s 100 metres on Monday night, in which Nigerian sprinters took all three medals. And it does not include the latest bronze medals won by Mozambique in chess and athletics.
So, with the proviso that it only covers events up to Monday afternoon, here is the latest COJA medals table:
South Africa: 131 (57 gold, 40 silver, 34 bronze)
Algeria: 51 (11 gold, 19 silver, 21 bronze)
Nigeria: 47 (11 gold, 16 silver, 20 bronze)
Tunisia 45: (17 gold, 19 silver, 9 bronze)
Egypt 30: (14 gold, 7 silver, 9 bronze)
Kenya: 28 (7 gold, 7 silver, 14 bronze)
Senegal: 20 (6 gold, 3 silver, 11 bronze)
Cameroon: 14 (4 gold, 1 silver, 9 bronze)
Mauritius: 13 (4 gold, 2 silver, 7 bronze)
Angola: 12 (2 gold, 4 silver, 6 bronze)
Seychelles: 12 (1 gold, 4 silver, 7 bronze)
Zimbabwe: 11 (4 gold, 6 silver, 1 bronze)
Ethiopia: 9 (2 gold, 3 silver, 4 bronze)
Botswana: 8 (1 gold, 2 silver and 5 bronze)
Ghana: 7 (1 gold, 6 bronze)
