Nigeria’s First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu has congratulated World Hurdles record holder, Tobi Amusan after relinquishing her World Championship title to Jamaican Danielle Williams ( 12.43s).
The first lady wrote, “Well done our beloved Tobi. We are proud of you. Return home to refresh yourself for the victory that awaits you.”
A loss in the final for Amusan who looked out of form after a turbulent preparation period means that as it stands, Team Nigeria is yet to record a medal on Day 6 of the ongoing World Athletics Championships in Budapest.
Amusan enjoyed a superb run on her way to Thursday’s final despite only getting cleared to compete by Athletics Integrity Unit two days before the start of the World Athletic Championship.
