Nigeria's Para-Table Tennis Star Gears Up for Paris 2024 Paralympic Qualifiers in Egypt

Isau Ogunkunle, a prominent figure in Nigeria's Para-Table tennis scene, is brimming with confidence as he readies himself for the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games qualifiers in Egypt.

The stage is set for a fierce showdown between Nigeria and Egypt at the 2023 ITTF African Para Table Tennis Championships. These two powerhouses of African table tennis are poised for an intense battle as they compete for glory on the continent.

Ogunkunle voiced his determination, stating, "I am heading to Egypt with a clear mission: to secure my ticket to Paris. I am determined not to endure the rigors of international travel to secure my qualification."

Recognizing the challenge ahead, he acknowledged his formidable opponent, Egyptian veteran Mohamed Sameh Eid Saleh, who aims for a record sixth appearance at the Paralympic Games. In the class four division of the men's singles, Ogunkunle expressed his confidence in surpassing this hurdle and clinching the solitary slot.

In addition to Egypt and Nigeria, Algeria and South Africa will also vie for medals in the tournament. Both Egypt and Nigeria have a storied history of representing Africa at the Paralympic Games and bringing home medals for their respective nations.

Team Nigeria is currently in intensive training, fine-tuning their skills and strategies in preparation for the impending championships. Their departure next week is eagerly anticipated, setting the stage for what promises to be an electrifying competition. Ogunkunle's unwavering self-belief adds to the excitement, foreshadowing a remarkable performance in Egypt.
