Nigeria competed at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris from 26 July to 11 August 2024. Since the nation made its debut in Helsinki 1952, Nigerian athletes have appeared in every edition of the Summer Olympic Games, except for Montreal 1976 as part of the Congolese-led boycott.
Nigeria, however, failed to earn a single Olympic medal for the first time since the 2012 Summer Olympics as a result of poor athletic performance. Notable athletes include Samuel Ogazi, who fell out of the Olympic podium by finishing seventh in the men's 400 m, with Nigeria's men's 4 × 400 metres relay having been disqualified for lane infringement. Blessing Oborududu fell short of her Olympic medal in women's freestyle 68 kg in wrestling, losing to bronze medalist Nonoka Ozaki of Japan.
