When the AFN releases the World Championships team list to Budapest, Tobi Amusan, Onwuzurike, and Brume are not included

According to the team list provided by AFN, Tobi Amusan, Udodi Onwuzurike, and Godson Brume won't be attending the World Championships in Budapest. Tobi Amusan, Udodi Onwuzurike, and Godson Brume, three of Nigeria's top athletes, will regrettably not be competing at the World Championships after the Athletics Federation of Nigeria (AFN) released the squad roster for Budapest. The AFN unveiled a list of 26 athletes, 11 men and 15 women, who will represent their nation in the capital of Hungary from August 19 to 27. Following her alleged doping controversy case of missing three tests by the Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU), world champion Amusan is excluded. The World Record (WR) holder for the women's 100-meter hurdles may not be able to defend her title because her hearing has not yet taken place and she is unsure of whether she will be found guilty or not before the competition begins. Why Tobi Amusan is supposedly being charged by the AIU with a doping offense is explained. Onwuzurike is therefore eliminated due to reports that he was too sick and injured to compete in the event.Likewise, Brume is out with an injury, which he announced on his Twitter page stating he'll focus on getting healthy for Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
