In a series of social media posts, professional table tennis player Quadri Aruna has continued to criticize the World Table Tennis (WTT) organization, alleging unjustifiable sanctions.

The Nigerian took to Facebook on Tuesday to express his discontent, accusing WTT of racism for imposing two rankings and monetary penalties within two months.

These penalties were reportedly due to Aruna’s absence from the World Championships and the WTT Championship in Korea earlier this year.

In response to WTT’s assertion that participation in these events was mandatory, Aruna vehemently disagreed, stating that he should have the freedom to prioritize his club commitments, which are essential for his livelihood, over WTT tournaments.

“Why exactly must participation in WTT Champions be mandatory when I have no paid contract with you? Why exactly do I have to leave my club that is paying me salary and play WTT events? Why exactly is this really mandatory?

“I have family to take care of and I have bills to pay monthly, why exactly do I have to be forced to play where I will not win money? Several prize money are yet to be paid by WTT and yet forcing players to play.​

“My prize money from cup finals, Doha Star Contender and Goa Star Contender, are yet to be received and why exactly must I leave my contract with my clubs and play WTT Champions in Korea and lose my contract with my clubs?,” He said in lengthy post on Facebook.
