Since her personal best for the 50 meter freestyle was 37.67 seconds, outside of the "B" qualifying time of 26.17 seconds, she competed in Rio on the basis of a wild card universal spot awarded to Benin. She competed in the women's 50 metre freestyle on 12 August, in the second heat. She finished second with a time of 33.01 seconds, behind the winner, Anastasiya Tyurina of Tajikistan (31.15 seconds). None of the times recorded by any of the swimmers in the heat were fast enough to qualify them for the following round, as qualification was based on times recorded and not the final positions. As such, all the swimmers for the semi finals were from the ninth, tenth, eleventh and twelfth heats.
