Tokyo 2020: I plan to wear my Olympic medal on Bishop Oyedepo -Ese Brume

Olympic Medalist, Ese Brume has revealed her plan to wear her bronze medal on the General overseer of the Living Faith church, Bishop David Oyedepo. She said the medal means that God is alive.

The 25-year-old recounted how she got injured in April but never relented. She however dedicated her bronze to Oyedepo and thanked Nigerians for their support

She said;

“Setting the African record boosted my confidence because then my injury was still fresh, yet I was able to set that record and a Personal Best. So, I thought to myself that ‘yes I could do it’ and my coach thought the same as well, so we never settled for less.

“And to those who were here but could not compete, never settle for less. God is with you. It is not over until it is over. You may not have competed here today but God has a better future ahead for you.

“This medal means that God is alive, Jesus is alive. I plan to go to Canaan-Land to wear it (Bronze medal) on Bishop David Oyedepo.

“It has been a great season even though I got injured in April, but I never settled for less.  I never looked at the situation but kept on pushing and my coach kept on pushing and told me ‘Ese, you can do it.’ Thank God I’m here today.”
