Doping: Nigeria stripped of CWG relay gold

By Daily Sports Nigeria on July 15, 2023

The Commonwealth Games Federation has stripped Nigeria of the gold medal it won in the women’s 4x100m relays at the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games.

This comes after an investigation on the positive doping result returned by Grace Nwokoch, a member of the quartet.

Nwokocha was provisionally suspended by the Athletics Integrity Unit after her sample returned an Adverse Analytical Finding for Ostarine and Dihydroxy-LGD-4033, a metabolite of Ligandrol.

Both are non-Specified Substances, listed under Other Anabolic Agents in the WADA 2022 Prohibited List.
