Congratulations to Seun Adigun, Ngozi Onwumere and Akuoma Omeoga, US-based Nigerian athletes for qualifying for the bobsled event at the 2018 Winter Games in PyeongChang.
This made them the first African team to qualify in the Bobsled category.
Last December, the women declared that they would put Nigeria on the map as its first representatives in the game and this became a reality after being announced as experienced to participate in the match after the completion of the five qualifying races.
Seun Adigun, one of the women, told ESPN that, “This is a huge milestone for sports in Nigeria. Nothing makes me prouder than to know that I can play a small role in creating opportunities for winter sports to take place in Nigeria. Our objective now is to be the best representation of Africa that the Winter Olympics have ever witnessed.”
