Eniola Bolaji has made history as the first African athlete to win a medal in Para-Badminton, securing a bronze medal for Nigeria in the Women’s Singles SL3 category.

On Monday morning, Bolaji defeated her Ukrainian opponent, Oksana Kozyna, in straight sets 2-0 (21-9, 21-9) to win Nigeria’s first Paralympics medal in Paris.

Although Bolaji had her sights set on gold, she fell short in the semi-final on Sunday, losing 2-0 (16-21, 17-21) to China’s Zuxian Xiao. However, she redeemed herself by clinching the bronze on Monday.
