Nigerian sprinter Favour Ofili has achieved a remarkable feat by securing a spot in the final of the women’s 200m event at the Paris Olympic Games.

With a season’s best time of 22.05s, she finished second in the semi-final race, closely following Julien Alfred’s winning time of 21.98s.

Ofili’s accomplishment marks a significant milestone in Nigerian athletics, as she becomes the first athlete since Mary Onyali to qualify for the 200m final at the Olympics.

Onyali, who remains the only Nigerian to have medaled in the event, set a high standard for future generations.

Ofili’s achievement is a testament to her hard work and dedication, and she is poised to make her mark on the Olympic stage.
