Olympic silver-medallist Blessing Oborududu (68kg) won her 11th consecutive continental title, claiming gold at the 2022 African Wrestling Championships in El Jadida, Morocco.
Adekoye Jumoke (55kg) and the Adekuoroye sisters, Odunayo and Mercy, also impressively won gold for Team Nigeria in the Women Wrestling events.
After easily overcoming her opponents in the earlier rounds, Commonwealth champion Oborududu made light work of Egypt’s Menatalla Badran in the final, securing a 4-0 fall victory in just 40 secs  to claim an 11th title in a row.
Before the final, the 33-year-old recorded back-to-back pin fall wins against Houria Boukrif of Algeria and Cameroon’s Blandine Ngiri in the first and second rounds respectively, before dominating Badran – whom she eventually conquered in the final – 10-0 via technical superiority in the 3rd round.
Oborududu overwhelmed Rosie Tabora of the Democratic Republic of Congo 10-0 via superiority in the semi-finals before clinching gold without conceding a single point.
On her part, world silver-medallist Odunayo Adekuoroye, who moved up to 59kg category, practically destroyed the field to claim a straight 7th African Championships gold.
Before overcoming Tunisia’s Siwar Bouseta 12-2 via superiority in the final, the back-to-back Commonwealth champion had beaten Atika El Asla 12-1, Bouseta 11-0 and Congo’s Parfaite Mambou 10-0 in the semi-finals.
On a day to remember for the first kuoroyes, Odunayo’s younger sister, Mercy, won her first senior title, with victory in the 53kg class.
