Team Nigeria’s gold medal haul at the ongoing All Africa Games in Congo
Brazzaville was on Monday increased by Tosin Oke after he finished first
in the men’s Triple Jump event on Monday.
Oke
returned to the event, to defend the title he won four years ago in
Maputo. He recorded a jump of 17.00m on Monday to claim gold thus
improving on his 16.65m jump which fetched him gold four years ago.
Oke finished amongst the top eight jumpers at the recently held World
Championships in Beijing and would now be hoping for a great show at the
Rio Olympics next year. Another Nigerian, Olumide Olamigoke who jumped
16.98m claimed the silver medal in the men’s triple jump event Making
Nigeria 1st & 2nd.
