The feat achieved by 17-year-old Ronke Akanbi has become a source of inspiration to Team Nigeria’s 10-man contingent at the ongoing 19th International School Sports Federation (ISF) Gymnasiade 2022 holding in Normandy, France.

Akanbi yesterday smashed Nigeria’s 3000m record after running 9.36.86 seconds to win the gold medal at the ISF Gymnasiade, which is the first medal to be won by any African team at the tournament.

Joseph, who led the team to the multi-sport fiesta, added: “For us at NSSF, this is a big feat and this is what we believe can restore the lost glory of Nigeria when we expose our young athletes to international competitions. “I am impressed with our athletes because they have shown courage and determination in the midst of other athletes and we hope this feat in France inspires other Nigerian students to aim high, both on track and in class.”
