Newly-crowned men's 100 metres Commonwealth champion Ferdinand Omanyala has pledged to replicate his heroics at next week’s Spitzen Leichtathletick World Continental Tour in Lucerne, Switzerland. Omanyala said he will similarly be targeting a masterstroke at the 2022 ISTAF World Continental Tour Silver in Berlin, Germany, too. Speaking on Monday, Omanyala dismissed suggestions he is under the pump to pull off major surprises in Lucerne and Berlin after breaking the glass ceiling in Birmingham to clinch gold. Omanyala, nonetheless, brushed the storm aside to record a landmark win in the men's 100m final at the Alexander Stadium in Birmingham, where he clocked 10.02. The National Police Service officer says he is also training his sights on a dream performance at the World Athletics Championships in Budapest next year.
