The team finished third in Africa after Tunisia and South Africa and 22nd overall on the medals table.

Most of the medals came in the weight lifting events, with Nigeria placing in 12 of 13 events. The athletes also set four world records through Esther Oyema, Yakubu Adesokan, Joy Onaolapo and Folashade Oluwafemiayo.
