Nigeria’s national record-holder in 200 metres, Divine Oduduru, has been suspended from competition indefinitely by the Athletics Integrity Unit over two anti-doping violations.

Oduduru, who now stands the risk of being banned for six years, has been charged with “the possession and/or use or attempted use of multiple prohibited substances.”

This development is the latest in Nigeria’s low moments in track and field, coming about a year after the 11-year ban imposed on former national team captain Blessing Okagbare.
