Kwara’s Gov. AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq on Sunday in Ilorin praised the superlative rise of Nigeria’s para-badminton player Eniola Bolaji to second place in the world.
AbdulRazaq, in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Rafiu Ajakaye, said Eniola’s rise was attributable to hard work, grit, consistency, and humility in victory.
The Kwara-born athlete was recently ranked number two in the world by the sport’s global governing body.
“I congratulate her, her coaches and supporters, while I also wish her greater wins at the upcoming Paris 2024 Paralympic Games and throughout her promising career,” the statement quoted the governor as saying.
