WITH silver and a bronze medal at the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo, Nigeria improved on their 2016 performance in Rio where they won just a bronze medal . But as the multi-sports event wraps up on Sunday , the fight for who wins the Games between China and the USA goes to the wire.

Ten out of 23 of the country’s athletes in the track and field event were disqualified from the Games after having failed to meet the minimum testing requirements under Rule 15 of the Anti-Doping Rules which states that athletes must have completed three out of competition doping tests six months before the Olympics.

As if that was not enough, the country’s top medal hopeful in the women’s 100 and 200 metres event, Blessing Okagbare was provisionally suspended for doping by the Athletics Integrity Unit.
