Former Sports Commissioner in Ogun State, Chief Bukola Olopade, arrived in Budapest, Hungary, on Monday morning with the sole aim of cheering the World Record holder in the women’s 100m hurdles, Tobiloba Amusan, to victory in defence of her title.

Amusan started her campaign here in Budapest on Tuesday at the National Athletics Stadium.

He is in Budapest as a guest of World Athletics for his contribution as the organiser of Marathon races in Nigeria.

Olopade, who was recently named as chairman of the Ogun 2024 National Sports Festival, is the brains behind the top-rated Access Bank-sponsored Lagos City Marathon, Abeokuta Marathon 10km race, Remo ultra-race and Abuja marathon. He was at the Budapest Athletics Stadium on Monday evening to witness the historic women’s 100m final, won by American sprinter, Richardson.


Olopade told The Guardian, at the Marriott hotel, in Budapest, that he would be excited to see Amusan retain her world title here at the 19th World Athletics Championships.

“First, I thank World Athletics for the recognition given to me to be part of these championships in Budapest. It will be a big excitement for me to see Tobi Amusan retain her world title on Wednesday. I will be at the stadium this afternoon to cheer her on and other Nigerian athletes. The AFN under Chief Tonobok Okowa has done so much for Nigeria’s athletics, and I think the federation deserves accolades. I will be happy if Nigeria gets a medal here in Budapest,” Olopade stated.

Tobi my Crusx. Thank God she's out of the woods. I hope she's fit physically and psychologically.

Interesting...

No carry bad luck go there

Best wishes for her.
Just watch as the undying, never-giveup Nigerian spirit in her will propel her to glory at this event. Despite the recent hurdles and challenges threatening to hold her down she'll quickly adjust and ready for the task ahead of her,.. Not so many people of the many races and countries around the world can bounce back or take a leap from challenges the way the Nigerian does, there's something unique in the DNA of Nigerians.

I wish Tobi the very best

It's only kid that'll be crushing on who's just impossible for him e.g Nicki Minaj is my crush,I love Tiwa Savage,I can die for Yemi Alade and all those bull shit.. Crushing on those who don't even know you exist..The rare opportunity you get to see them you may not even move an inch close to them.So why don't you work on yourself and better yourself to be in their league or better in higher league ahead of them

Nice

Nice one
