Posted : 16 June 2025

Chairman of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM), Abike Dabiri-Erewa, has congratulated former UFC welterweight champion Kamaru “Nigerian Nightmare” Usman following his triumphant return inside the octagon at UFC Fight Night in Atlanta on Sunday.

Usman broke a nearly four-year losing streak with a commanding unanimous decision victory over Joaquin Buckley, delivering a performance that had fans calling it “one of the best” of his career. He controlled the bout with elite wrestling, claiming significantly more takedowns and ground control en route to the win.

In reaction to the milestone, Dabiri-Erewa—who previously congratulated Usman for international triumphs, praised his resilience and dedication, stating that the victory symbolizes a stronger, renewed path forward for Nigerian athletes on the global stage . She encouraged Nigerians everywhere to draw inspiration from his comeback and continue their own quests for excellence.

With Usman now in line to re-enter title contention, Dabiri-Erewa’s endorsement underscores the broader significance of his victory, not just for MMA, but for Nigeria and its presence in global sports diplomacy.
