Segun Toriola is Africa’s most-decorated table tennis player.

He won his first game on Saturday when he defeated defeated Canada’s Andre Ho 4-1 in the Olympic men’s Table tennis.

But yesterday at the North Arena of ExCel Centre, Quadri’s dream of equaling Segun Toriola’s feat at the Olympics was halted by Turkey’s Bora Vang in the second round encounter.
Quadri led 2-0 before he was rounded off by the world number 71 Turk for the match to end 6-11, 10-12, 12-10, 11-2, 12-10, 12-10 (4-2). Fans’ favourite, Quadri, initially threatened another shock victory against Vang, only to falter.
The Nigerian, who has enjoyed cult following at the ExCeL Arena, moved into a 2-0 lead before losing the next four games, three of which were extremely tight. It was Vang’s recovery that beat the effervescent Nigerian in a contest that delighted the crowd at the venue.

Nevertheless, Segun Toriola, you are still a winner.....;)
