The duo of PC Collins Obi and W/PC Dorcas Eworo, along with two other swimmers, are Nigeria’s representatives in the 2023 World Aquatics Championship currently underway at Fukuoka – Japan.

Force Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, said the Police swimmers put up an exceptional performance for Nigeria at the 2022 edition of the African Aquatics Championship, winning a combined Sixteen (16) Medals for Nigeria, a feat which resulted in Nigeria emerging 2nd overall at the Continental Event.

Adejobi, an Assistant Commissioner of Police equally, said the police swimmers were the only athletes to represent Nigeria at the 2022 World Aquatics Championship in Budapest Hungary, where they had narrow misses of a podium finish.

PC Collins Obi is a two-time and current beneficiary of the World Aquatics Federation (FINA) Scholarship Programme ongoing in Kazan Russia, while W/PC Dorcas Eworo is hopeful of improving on her performance in order to make the cut for selection into this prestigious Athletes Development Programme.

Acting Inspector-General of Police, Olukayode Egbetokun charges the wonderful Ambassadors of the force and Nigeria, to keep the flag flying and wishes them a most successful outing.
