Glo, in a press statement issued on Tuesday in Lagos, lauded Tobi Amusan for the outstanding achievement, adding that her victory, despite her recent setback, has shown that she is a talented professional who still has a lot to offer the world of athletics.

Said Glo, “With the third Diamond League trophy in her kitty, Amusan remains a true African ambassador at the world stage and an inspiration to millions of youths who look up to her as a role model“.

It described her as an embodiment of the Nigerian spirit of resilience and hard work, and urged her to continue to forge ahead, win more laurels and leave an indelible mark in global athletics that will be remembered for years to come.

Amusan failed to defend her world title after she finished sixth in the final at the National Athletics Centre in Budapest, Hungary. She, however, promised to come back “stronger and better”.
