This not only shatters her National Record of 63.30m set in 2021, but also breaks the previous African Record of 64.87m set by South Africa’s Elizna Naudé in 2007. https://naijaphilia.com/blog/2023/04/18/sports-nigerias-onyekwere-obilterates-16-year-african-record/

Also, Onyekwere’s record throw exceeded the World Championship qualifying mark of 64.20m, meaning she has qualified to compete in the Budapest 2023 World Athletics Championship scheduled for 19 – 27 August 2023 (though she already has a wild card entry as the African champion). https://naijaphilia.com/blog/2023/04/18/sports-nigerias-onyekwere-obilterates-16-year-african-record/
