Africa 100m record holder Ferdinand Omanyala is now hoping for a good show at the 2023 World Athletics Championships in Budapest, Hungary and the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.

On Wednesday, Omanyala became the first Kenyan in 60 years to win 100m gold medal at the Commonwealth Games. The late Seraphino Antao won gold medals in 100 and 220 yards at the 1962 Commonwealth Games in Perth in western Australia.
