THE RECORD BREAKER
She first caught the eye at the 2004 National Sports Festival with a 3rd place finish in triple jump, and she hasn't looked back since then. Blessing Okagbare has matured into a serial champion and record breaker.
In May 2007, she set a new African U-20 triple jump National Record of 14.13m.
In July 2013, she set a new 100m National/African record of 10.79s breaking Glory Alozie's 14-year old 100m record of 10.90.
In 2018 she set a National/African record of 22.04s breaking Mary Onyali's 22-year old record.
GOATs don't get any better than Queen B.
