This comes after their initial exclusion from the race due to Blessing Okagbare’s additional one-year drug suspension by World Athletics.
An official of the Athletics Federation of Nigeria told The Guardian yesterday that France women’s 4x100m relay team was ‘depleted.’ “The additional one-year ban on Okagbare only affected results she was involved in our relay team from June 13, 2021.

If France is depleted, then Nigeria is in for Oregon 2022 and that is a good news for Team Nigeria.”
