Table Tennis: Aruna Quadri reclaims African title in Rwanda

Six years after losing his crown, Nigerian table tennis legend Quadri Aruna on Tuesday reclaimed the ITTF Africa Cup title after winning the 2024 edition at BK Arena in Kigali, Rwanda.

Aruna emerged as champion in a ruthless fashion, registering a commanding win in the final against Egypt’s Mohamed El-Beiali.

Aruna justified his top seed rating as he stormed to a 4-0 (11-5, 11-6, 12-10, 11-3) win to emerge as the new Africa Cup champion after losing the title to Egypt’s Omar Assar in 2018.
