The Queen of the tracks will not be representing the country, at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio, Brazil. Okagbare hinged her decision on injury after her poor outing at the IAAF World championships in Beijing, China. 
The Delta indigene shocked  officials when she appeared in Zurich shortly after she told them she won’t show up in Congo. She ran 10.98 seconds in the Diamond League, much to the bewilderment of athletics officials who thought she was injured.

Apparently dissatisfied with her reasons, there are reports that the  NSC and the AFN may deny her the chances of appearing in the 2016 Olympics event.‎
