Nigeria’s Adijat Gbadamosi has entered the history books as the country’s first woman to win an African boxing title.
Fondly known as ‘Dija’, Gbadamosi achieved this remarkable feat during the third edition of the ‘King of the Ring’ series, organised by Monarch Events and Promotions, in Accra, Ghana.
Gbadamosi, a 2018 youth Olympic Silver medallist, won the Africa Super Bantamweight female title dramatically as the co-main event at the Bukom Boxing Arena.
