The other three Nigerians listed in the ranking are Raymond Ekevwo (31), Ushoritse Ishekiri (61) and Alaba Akintola (64).

New Nigerian record holders in the 400m hurdles (Nathaniel Ezekiel) and Javelin (Nnamdi Chinacherem Prosper) also made it to the top 100 list of ranked athletes in their respective events.
