Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley SC, MP, has called on all Barbadians to wear their national colours tomorrow, August 9, 2024, to support Sada Williams in her Olympics 200-metres finals.

At approximately 2 p.m. local time tomorrow, Williams will become the first woman to represent Barbados in an Olympics athletics final, and Prime Minister Mottley has called on the nation to once again come together to support the 2022 Commonwealth Games 200-metres winner.

“For Sada, we want to represent the Blue, Yellow and Black. And we want to make sure that … tomorrow, all of us, as much as possible, can let her know that we are with her in spirit,” Mottley said.

“We have her in our prayers and we know that she will do her best, whatever that best is,” the Prime Minister added.

Williams qualified for Paris Olympics finals on August 7 with a time of 49.89 in her semifinal heat.
