The Nigeria Wrestling Federation (NWF) has apologised to Nigerians over the poor outing of Nigeria wrestlers to the recently concluded Paris Olympics.
The President of NWF, Daniel Igali, apologised to Nigerians for falling below expectations as it was one of the Federations with high hopes heading into the Olympics because of what it has been able to produce on the global stage over the years.
“We also apologise to Nigerians for not reaching the climax that we set for ourselves. “In the past, there was no Federation in Nigeria’s history that has won six world championships.
It is only the Wrestling Federation.” Six wrestlers comprising one male and five females, represented Nigeria at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
The wrestlers are Ogunsanya Christianah (53kg), Kolawole Esther (62kg), Adekuoroye Odunayo (57kg), Reuben Hannah (76kg), Oborududu Blessing (68kg) and US-BASED Mutuwa Ashton (125kg).
Meanwhile, the federation hosted the wrestlers to a reception upon their return to Nigeria.
