Africa’s fastest man Ferdinand Omanyala will be hunting down the fastest time in the world this year when he explodes out of the blocks.
The current world-leading mark stands at 9.89 seconds, set by Collen Kebinatshipi at the Botswana National Championships on April 3.
“Now that I have built up momentum, I have to stand on business at the Kip Keino,” Omanyala said.
“I am hoping for a sub 10 seconds race but at the back of my mind, I am looking at the world lead.”
The Kenyan sprint king’s confidence has been reignited after rediscovering his rhythm at the Addis Ababa Grand Prix, where the 2022 Commonwealth Games 100m champion dipped under the coveted 10-second barrier for the first time in nearly two years, clocking a reassuring 9.98.
