Solanke speaking in a chat with www.brila.net said it was a memorable and eventful tournament for him becoming the new king of Africa at the junior level especially as this was his last championship as a junior player.
“I am very happy to become the Africa junior Table Tennis champion most especially because I didn’t know I can win this competition but fortunately God said it’s mine.
“I am very happy again because this is my last time of playing junior championship and I made the record to become Africa junior Table Tennis champion 2019.”
Azeez Solanke also picked up a doubles Gold alongside compatriot Jamiu Ayanwale and would now move to the senior cadre from next year.
