Brume's 6.89m leap fell short of her season's best effort but it was enough to hand her the fifth national title.
Ese Brume and Mike Edwards were top of the winners' list as the 2022 Nigeria Athletics Championship ended on Sunday at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium, Benin City, Edo State.
Brume, who has been in impressive form ahead of the World Championships in Oregon and the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, won the Women's Long Jump event with a leap of 6.98m.
Though the 6.98m leap fell short of her season's best effort, it was enough to hand Brume her fifth national title and maintain her dominance in the event.
Ruth Usoro, who won the Triple Jump on Saturday, settled for the second spot with a leap of 6.53m while Ruth Agadama also made it to the podium in third place.
In the Men's High Jump event, Mike Edwards successfully defended his title after jumping to a new Season's Best of 2.20m.
Edwards, who was competing only for the second time this season, improved on the 2.15m he jumped in Mauritius earlier this month.
"Of course, I'm happy with the title and also happy that the other guys are also coming up nicely. Unfortunately, I will not be at the World Championships even if I had made the standards here, so the focus will be on the Commonwealth Games where I hope to give it my best shot again," Edwards told PREMIUM TIMES and other reporters in Benin after his winning feat.
In the men's javelin throw, the National Record holder, Nnamdi Chinecherem, also successfully defended his title with a throw of 78.07m.
