Nigeria’s rising athletics star, Omosivwe Treasure, has once again stamped her name on the record books after clinching gold in the women’s high jump at the CAA Region II Senior Athletics Championships in Accra.

The 15-year-old sensation, fresh from her outstanding performance at the National Trials in Lagos, cleared 1.75m — equalling her Personal Best (PB) — to claim the top spot in a highly competitive field.

Despite being the youngest athlete representing Nigeria at the championship, Omosivwe showed no nerves, delivering a performance that stunned both fans and senior athletes.

Her clearance not only secured victory but also reinforced her reputation as Nigeria’s reigning high jump champion at such a tender age.

Sports analysts have hailed her victory as a sign that Nigeria’s athletics pipeline remains strong.

“At just 15, winning medals at senior level shows she is a generational talent. Omosivwe is one of those rare athletes who can dominate Africa — and beyond — if given the right support,” one athletics coach told Stone Reporters.

Her achievement has sparked renewed calls for structured investment in grassroots sports, particularly athletics, to nurture more talents like her.

For many, Omosivwe’s triumph is more than just a medal; it represents hope. Her ability to consistently compete against older, more experienced athletes — and win — has made her one of the brightest prospects for Nigeria’s future at continental and global championships.

With her discipline, determination, and natural flair, Omosivwe Treasure is proving that the future of Nigeria’s high jump is in safe hands.
