World Championship Trials: Tobi Amusan Storms Benin City

Sampson Adedeji

Ahead of the World Athletics trials, world champion Tobi Amusan has arrived in Benin City, Edo State for the event, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

Amusan has had a splendid week as she won Bronze in Ostrava, Silver in Lausanne, and Gold in Stockholm Diamond League and sent a warning signal to rivals.

She touched down in Edo State on Tuesday evening brimming with confidence and in high spirits to compete in the hurdles events.

Amusan will be competing in Nigeria for the first time since breaking the world record in Oregon last season.

The Commonwealth Games champion will aim to improve her performance in the Benin trials, for her to be selected to represent Nigeria in Budapest, Hungary in August.
