In the Men’s 400m at the Edmonton Athletics Invitational, All-African Games Champion Chidi Okezie blasted to a Personal Best (PB) of 44.97 seconds, surpassing the Olympic Standard.
Additionally, he selected the Olympic ticket for Paris.
In the same 45.55 seconds, he finished ahead of Wil London III and DaeQwan Butler, who placed second and third, respectively.
Remember how he stormed to a Personal Best (PB) of 45.06 seconds in the men’s 400-meter final at the All African Games in Ghana, the fastest time by a Nigerian athlete in nine years. It was an incredible race.
