Team Nigeria will begin medals chase this morning inside the SEC Armadillo Hall of the Hydro Stadium here in Glasgow, Scotland with six of our para-powerlifters in actions for medals in the first competition day of the 2026 Commonwealth Games.
Expectedly, two-time Paralympic champion, Folashade Oluwafemiayo, will lead the medals chase when competes in the heavyweight category. Oluwafemiayo set a world record of 155kg in Birmingham four years ago, which she extended to 168kg a year after winning gold at Paris 2024 Paralympic Games.
