Speaking at the Mixed zone of the Olympic Stadium  Tokyo,  time said he was dedicating her first Olympic medal to  Bishop Oyedepo, her coach Kayode Gaya and her family.

“This medal means a lot to me. It doesn’t matter the colour. First I dedicate it to Bishop Oyedepo and I plan to decorate him with the medal later”, she said amidst sobs and wiping her tears

I’m super excited that I made it to the top three at the Olympics. Honestly, I can’t contend with my joy.

I have NEVER seen myself in worse situations because I was injured. But my coach kept pushing and my trust in God renewed my energy. When I break the African record, my injury was still fresh. It spurred me. And here I am today grateful to God and all those he used to make me an Olympic medallist
