Yes, but according to wiki her father is from Bahrain and they said it on tv as well 

You may be right. In every article I red about her was always 'Nigerian-born athlete' so I assumed thet her name was after father but at IAAF site is some information that her dad is from Bahrain.

What's the point in building a 9th lane if lane 1 is not used then? 

Lane 1 is 10 cm broader because of the 5 cm high inside edge, so it is fair that eight athletes run in lanes 2-8, which are all equal (while it doesn't matter in the events when everybody can use this lane).

Only in the sense that Allah is her father, if Allah is from Bahrein. 

 

that is a bit disrespectful and racist independent if true or not

Can KJT go for 7,000 pts here? Or Ennis' NR?

Both are actually within reach, she is usually a good 800m runner. 

 

World record would be outside Carsten Semenya territory, though.
