Nigeria-born athlete, Femi Ogunode on Sunday, 28 September,
2014, won the Asian Games 100 metres gold in a new continental record
time of 9.93 seconds despite wet conditions in Incheon, South Korea.
Ogunode, who also won the 200-400m double at the 2010 games, beat China’s Su Bingtan and Japan’s Kei Takase to second and third places respectively.
