Divine Oduduru is now the second fastest African, after his amazing performance at the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) championships yesterday.
Divine Oduduru became the second fastest African behind his compatriot and legend Olusoji Fasuba. He easily won the 100 meters in 9.86 seconds which is the fastest ever by an African since Fasuba ran a slightly faster time of 9.85 seconds 13 years ago in Doha.
The Texas-based athlete also won the 200 meters in 19.73 seconds, 45 minutes after his heroics in the 100m.
Here is a video of his big win below;
