Tournament No. 2 seed Nigeria’s Quadri Aruna has been forced to withdraw from the Men’s Singles event at the 2024 ITTF Africa Championships in Addis Ababa because of a thigh injury and fatigue.
Despite leading Nigeria to a gold medal in the team event against Algeria on October 14, Aruna had to withdraw from his second-round match against Benin Republic’s Dodji Fanny.
Aruna explained, “I’ve been playing in various tournaments for the past two months, often in different time zones. I was in India, Macau, China, and Saudi Arabia for league matches.
