General Interest

General
Nigeria qualified for Tokyo via the world rankings, thanks to their time of 42.97s at an event in Lagos in June 2021.

The Nigerian team have competed at every Olympic Games since they won a bronze medal on debut at the 1992 Games in Barcelona, just 0.04s ahead of fourth-placed France. They have made the final on every occasion, and claimed their second medal, originally a bronze, at the 2008 Games, before it was upgraded to silver in 2016 after the Russian team that originally finished first in Beijing were disqualified for an anti-doping violation.

Nigeria are yet to claim a medal at the world championships, however, and have not made the final at the tournament since 2011.
