‘Well done’ – Mrs Tinubu encourages Amusan despite World Athletics Championship defeat
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 100m hurdles world record holder placed 6th (12.62s) at the ongoing World Athletics Championship in Budapest on Thursday.
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.
