Ella Onojuvwevwo (born 25 March 2005) is a Nigerian sprinter.[1]

Early life

In 2021, she won gold as part of the women’s 4x400m relay and mixed 4x400m relay at the 2021 World Athletics U20 Championships in Nairobi.[3][4]

Onojuvwevwo was a silver medallist at the 2022 African Championships in the mixed 4x400m relay in Mauritius and also won bronze at the championships in the women's 4x400m relay.[5][6] She was part of the Nigerian team that competed in the 400 metres and the 4x400m relay at the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, in which they qualified for the final and finished sixth.

Onojuvwevwo ran for Nigeria as part of the 4x400m relay team at the 2023 World Athletics Championships in Budapest.[7]

In April 2024, she lowered her personal best over 400 metres to 51.32 seconds in Florida.[8]

The following weekend she lowered her personal best to 50.57 seconds at the SEC championships in Florida. The time met the 2024 Olympic qualifying standard and made her the fastest Nigerian woman since Falilat Ogunkoya ran 50.50s in 2001, and placed her fifth on the Nigerian all-time list.[11]
