The 11th All Africa University Games continued on Thursday with some outstanding performances from athletes from Mauritania and Ghana.
Joseph Dezadin, a student of the University of Mauritius and a high jump gold medallist, said the jump that gave him the gold medal was not his personal best.
Dezadin said in an interview with NAN shortly after the medal presentation at the University of Lagos (UNILAG) Sports Centre. Dezadin beat off stiff competition from Ghanaian athletes and said he was happy winning the gold medal.
