Hey doubters.. the more you talk, the more I shine.. you don’t know how deep this goes…. All of this was just a matter of time.. we not done. Talk soon⏳
Good day, @jidesanwoolu@Mr_JAGs .
There’s a young man from Ikorodu, Ajayi Kayinsola, breaking records on the global athletics scene, and he deserves recognition.
In 2025, he became the first Nigerian in 18 years to make the 100m final at the World Athletics Championships.
Coming into the 2026 season, Ajayi has been on an incredible winning and record-breaking streak on the NCAA Division 1 circuit in America, the highest and most competitive level of collegiate sports globally.
Starting in February, he won the 60m title at the SEC Indoor Championship with a national record of 6.45s.
A mark that equalled the African and Collegiate records. For perspective, 6.45 would have earned him a medal at the World Indoor Championships.
A month later, he repeated his national, african, and collegiate record to win the NCAA Indoor title.
It didn’t take Ajayi too long to break another record when the outdoor season began. He lowered Olusoji Fasuba’s 100m national record that had stood for almost 20 years to a world-leading 9.84s.
In case it’s not clear, AJAYI KAYINSOLA IS THE FASTEST MAN IN THE WORLD OVER 100M IN 2026. Yes, as I write this, he’s faster than the reigning 100m Olympic and World Champion.
Yesterday, he made history again, winning the 100m title at the NCAA Outdoor Championships with a windy (+2.2) 9.72, the fastest all-conditions time by an African ever.
Ajayi Kayinsola continues to put Nigeria on the map, and I strongly believe he should be acknowledged and rewarded.
The world has been celebrating him; it’s time Lagos state does the same.
Beyond government recognition, I hope Nigerian brands, and Nigerians in general, start paying closer attention to athletes like Ajayi.
This is what human beings lack. They give their children everything, making them dependent and less resilient. This mom is teaching us how to raise strong, capable kids who can stand on their own.
Naaah!! This was not preparing for the World Record, it was more like speaking something into existence as Danielle Williams alluded to.
By the way, shoutout to @WachiraLynne for this great interview.
Danielle was talking about what happened at an Adidas experiential center for their athletes. Tobi Amusan barely wrote what she hoped for. She didn't know that it would come at that championship.
This explains the huge shock on her face when she saw the time. Don't forget that she ran an African Record of 12.41s in the heats the previous day before the semis, so that her expectation that season.
She was okay with the African Record, until the World Record came her way.
