Oshodi joins ITTF’s Ukraine task force

Oshodi

Nigeria’s Wahid Enitan Oshodi has been appointed into a five-man International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF)’s Task Force saddled with the responsibility of monitoring and coordinating efforts to allow Ukrainian players to continue participating in international events.

One of the major items discussed during the ongoing meeting of the ITTF Executive Committee in Singapore was the outbreak of war in Ukraine.

The ITTF Executive Committee expressed concern over the war while reaffirming its full solidarity with the Ukrainian Table Tennis community.

It was the outcome of their discussions that led to the formation of a Task Force which has members as ITTF President, Petra Sörling (Sweden), Executive Committee, Khalil Al-Mohannadi (Qatar), and Oshodi (Nigeria), alongside Zoran Primorac (Croatia) who is Athletes’ Commission Chair, and Steve Dainton, ITTF Group Chief Executive Officer.

The ITTF Executive Committee was held in parallel with the first-ever WTT Grand Smash while the $2m prize money event received high praise from all the members, which were particularly impressed by the sports presentation, the quality of the organisation, and its service level.
