Reactions from fans on Instagram have been pouring in, with many expressing their devastation and concern over the state of Nigerian boxing.
WBO Africa champion Seun Wahab sympathised with Ogunsemilore, writing, “Oh my God, this is so bad. I feel sorry for her; maybe she never knew of the substances she used.”
Oyebode Odeniyi highlighted the need for better education as he wrote, “Our boxers need education on proper nutrition; it’s most likely she never even knew what she had taken to have tested positive for such.”
Fellow boxer Isaac Chukwudi simply described the news as “sad to hear,” while Tobiloba Chase called it “sad news for the Nigeria boxing federation.”
Some fans, like Usman, with the username @unknownsoja99, pointed to systemic issues within Nigerian sports.
