Speaking on her outing in the last Olympics, she  said "I was not ready, I was rusty but now I have four international events before the Olympics proper so I  believe I am going to make Nigeria proud".

"I  am world number two at the moment but  I can do better", she said. I can go to the Olympics and pick medals with the support of the Sports Ministry."

Asked how she felt to have a number of people jostling to adopt her at the launch, she said, "I was beyond excited. One, two three people wanted to adopt me at the launch but in the end I was adopted by Halogen and they are going to take care of my training tour, my preparation and travel allowances.

" I want to thank the Minister of Youth and Sports Development who put this initiative together and all who made this possible", the athlete concluded.
