With this latest achievement, Benue State has now amassed a total of two silver and seven bronze medals at the festival.

Despite his impressive performance throughout the competition, Iniobong was ultimately bested by his opponent from the host team in the final minutes of the match.

Speaking to journalists shortly after his bout, the silver medallist extended his gratitude to Benue State Governor Hyacinth Alia for enabling him and fellow athletes to compete in the Gateway Games.

Reflecting on his aspirations, Iniobong expressed disappointment over not clinching the gold medal as he had hoped but remained optimistic for future opportunities. “I always aim to win gold medals for my state,” he said. “I am further encouraged by this experience and I vow to give my all for Benue when the next opportunity arises.”
