Nigerians and Team Nigeria athletes can now have sigh of relief as Court of Arbitration for Sports (CAS) postponed the judgement on the case between Nigeria and World Anti-doping Agency (WADA)
On Friday, a decision was expected from CAS but the decision may have been deferred till after the Paris 2024 Games.
WADA had claimed that Nigeria, among some other countries, did not comply with WADA Code.
The alleged non-compliance in the Nigeria case is due to the Nigeria Anti-Doping Organisation (NADO) not addressing several critical requirements to its anti-doping program following an audit carried out by WADA in late 2022.
The General Secretary of the Nigeria Olympic Committee (NOC), Tunde Popoola told the Sports Village Square that he was not entertaining any fear of Nigeria losing the case.
“It will be a shocker, if they decide to suspend us”, said Popoola. He added that he had not heard anything about the case.
