Nigeria’s Oluwafemiayo breaks Para-Powerlifting record

Nigeria’s Folashade Oluwafemiayo has just broken her World Record in the women’s over 86kg Para-Powerlifting, becoming the first Para-athlete in history to lift 166kg.

It is an improvement from her existing WR of 165kg. She also added a gold medal to the record.

It is an incredible performance from Oluwafemiayo who takes Nigeria’s overall tally at the Paralympics to seven medals overall.

Her win comes on the heels of the Super Eagles’s AFCON qualifier match against Benin Republic.

They defeated their opponents 3-0 at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo on Saturday.
