Nigeria’s Ruth Usoro competes in the women’s triple jump qualification during the World Athletics Championships at Hayward Field in Eugene, Oregon on July 16, 2022.
In Canoeing and Cycling, one athlete in each sport has secured the right to don the national colours at the Games. “It’s wonderful to see women breaking barriers and excelling in their respective sports,” remarked Mary Onyali, a Silver medalist in the Olympics, who in her heyday dominated the 100m, 200m and the relays.
Gumel, who doubles as IOC lone member for Nigeria further stated that the women will undoubtedly make Team Nigeria proud and show the world the strength and talent of Nigerian women in sports. Unless urgent steps are taken by the Federal Government, the nation’s hope of making an appreciable impact at the fast-approaching Paris 2024 Olympic Games may have wane.
