Female table tennis star Edem Offiong has revealed reasons why Nigeria is not at the same level with Egypt in the sport.
Despite Nigeria’s massive improvement in the game, Egypt has dominated them at all levels and Edem claimed that the Egyptians are more exposed.
“The Egyptians are ahead of us because they attend more competition than us and we hope we can get such support to return to the top of the game in Africa”, Edem said.
Edem became the first athlete to earn Team Nigeria a medal at the African Games in Accra on Tuesday after finishing in the top 3 of the women’s singles event.
