… Assures AFN Will Continue To Support Nigerian Athletes

The President of the Athletics Federation of Nigeria (AFN), Chief Tonobok Okowa, has congratulated Nigeria’s hurdles queen, Oluwatobi Amusan, for winning the 100mh silver medal at the ongoing World Athletics Championships in Tokyo, Japan.

The current world record holder, Amusan, placed second in the final of the women’s 100metres hurdles in 12.29secs behind a familiar opponent, Ditaji Kambundji of Switzerland who won in 12.24secs.

Okowa, who described Amusan as a national pride, said the federation will continue to support Nigerian athletes to reach their peak.

The AFN President noted that the achievement was loud and a great testament to the indomitable spirit of Nigerians.

“I am particularly happy for Tobi Amusan. She is carrying the hopes of Nigerians at the World Championships as a star athlete. Her discipline on the track against her competitors was amazing being the current champion.”

Okowa said Amusan, the current world record holder in the 100mh with a time of 12:12s set in the semi-finals at Oregon 2022 where she eventually raced to gold in the final, has yet again proved her status on the world stage.

“With this performance here in Tokyo, Tobi has once again, shown that great talents abound in Nigeria. Congratulations to Team Nigeria for this valued medal,” Okowa stated.
