Para Badminton Player Eniola Bolaji
Nigeria’s Paralympic Games bronze medallist Eniola Bolaji will remain in Peru until August 15 to participate in a high-level para badminton training camp, President of the Badminton Federation of Nigeria (BFN), Francis Orbih, has disclosed.
The latest development is coming after Bolaji produced an impressive performance to win the Women’s SL3 title at the 2026 Peru Para Badminton International.
The Nigerian defeated Brazil’s Kauana Beckenkamp 2-0 (21-12, 21-12) in the final on Sunday, August 9, to secure the gold medal.
According to Orbih, the training camp is being organised through a collaboration involving the Badminton Confederation Africa (BCA), Badminton PanAm and the Badminton Federation of Nigeria.
“Eniola will be staying back in Peru until August 15 to attend a training camp courtesy of the BCA, Badminton PanAm and BFN,” Orbih said.

He described the programme as a high-level camp designed for leading para badminton players, noting that it would provide Bolaji with valuable preparation for the remaining competitions on her calendar.
“It is a high-level para badminton camp for top para badminton players,” Orbih added.
“This is part of her preparation to end the year on a high note, with the Thailand and Indonesia championships coming up later in the year.”
Bolaji’s decision to remain in Peru provides the Nigerian star with an opportunity to train alongside some of the world’s leading para badminton players while building on the confidence gained from her latest international triumph.
The camp is expected to further strengthen her preparations as she targets more success in the upcoming Thailand and Indonesia championships.
