Nigeria’s field and track athlete, Blessing Okagbare, suffered an embarrassing moment in Oslo, Norway when her wig fell off as she jumped during a competition.

The 28-year-old Beijing 2008 Olympic silver medallist is competing in the Oslo leg of the IAAF Diamond League

She recorded a jump of 6.21 metres to finish seventh while her wig was nearly half a metre behind her.

Whether the mishap played its part in her finishing seventh is unclear, but the 28-year-old laughed it off on her Instagram account, saying: “It is what it is.”

While the scenario may look embarrassing, some of her fans on Instagram where unfazed by the incident.
