Nigeria’s Wahid Enitan Oshodi was, at the weekend, re-elected as executive vice president of the International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF).

The elections held during the body’s online yearly general meeting (AGM) on Saturday, also saw the confirmation of former Nigeria Olympic Committee (NOC) Secretary General, Olabanji Oladapo, as a member of the ITTF Council following the ratification of the council membership.

Oshodi, who also serves as president of the African Table Tennis Federation (ITTF Africa), secured his re-election in the first round of voting contested by 15 candidates worldwide. He emerged among the top seven, alongside representatives from the United States, China, Turkey, Australia, Ecuador, Romania, and Jordan.

Of the three African candidates; Oshodi, Egypt’s Alaa Meshref, and South Africa’s Hajera Kajee, Oshodi was the only one elected to the eight-member Vice President team.

Oshodi and China’s Liu Guoliang are the only returning members from the outgoing executive board, while six newly elected officials will join the board for the first time.

Oshodi will serve another four-year term (2025–2029) alongside ITTF President Petra Sörling, continuing to champion Africa’s representation at the global level.

With his re-election, he will continue to play a pivotal role in advancing the sport globally while strengthening Africa’s presence within the ITTF.
