The Nigerian delegation is led by senior officials of the Athletics Federation of Nigeria, including President Tonobok Okowa, Secretary General Isreal Inwang, and Technical Director Gabriel Okon.

The squad is a blend of youth and experience. Enaruna Itohan, Badmus Atanda, Ezeakor Chidera, Emmanuel Taiwo, Ojeli Emmanuel, and George Okon are among those expected to play key roles. Other squad members include Nathaniel Samson, Adeyemi Adewale, Sampson Ime, Godwin Tejiri, Andrew Lawrence, Chukwuka Jennifer, and Omokwe Thompson.

The team has spent the last six weeks sharpening their baton exchanges and race strategy at a training camp in Asaba, Delta State.

With administrative backing from the National Sports Commission and the AFN, Nigeria will be aiming to make a strong impression in Gaborone as they continue their preparations for the World Relay Championships.
