Our gold Olympic champion Femi Ogunode, the star of the Incheon Asiad, expressed his great happiness at the achievement, the sprint double and breaking the Asian records, after being crowned with his second gold in the 200m final, dedicating the achievement and the double to our sporting leadership and praising the support, backing and encouragement he and his teammates have enjoyed, which helped him rise to world class and dominate the giant Asian continent, establishing himself as an undisputed star. He added: Certainly, the title of Asia’s fastest man does not bring arrogance or carelessness into me – rather it is a motivation and a sense of responsibility that I hope to live up to with courage and competence, especially as reaching the top can sometimes come down to a stroke of luck, but staying there requires redoubled effort and a fight to remain on the throne, and he closed his remarks by thanking the technical and administrative staff for their support throughout his preparation and during the competitions of the 2014 Asian Games in Incheon.
