Nigeria’s six golds have been the standout feature of their campaign to date, underlining the strength of the African nation’s contingent across the 10-sport programme. The team has yet to claim a bronze medal but remains firmly in the top five with several days of competition still remaining.

The Games run until 2 August, with athletics, swimming, weightlifting, gymnastics and other disciplines still offering multiple medal opportunities. Nigeria will look to build on their strong start as the competition intensifies in Glasgow.
