Experienced coaches are expected to train Team Nigeria to the glamorous World Relays, scheduled to take center stage from 4 to 5 May 2024 in the Bahamas.
The trainers are Gabriel Okon and Endurance Ojokolo, while LSU’s legendary head coach Dennis Shaver is also reported to be joining the team which has the potential to cause upsets at the event.
Nigeria will be present as one of the underdogs against the big guns such as USA, Netherlands, Italy, and Jamaica.
The recently concluded African Games in Ghana laid a strong case for the possibility of Nigeria regaining her status as a powerhouse relay country after dominating with four gold (men and women’s 4x100m, women’s 4x400m, and mixed 4x400m) and a silver medal (men’s 4x400m) at the end of the continental showpiece.
The glamorous World Relays are a crucial Paris Olympic qualifying team events for top-performing athletes from more than 40 countries.
