About Atanda Musa

  • Atanda Musa (born 3 February 1960) is a Nigerian table tennis player.
  • He represented Nigeria at two Summer Olympics in 1988 and 1992, taking part in both the singles and doubles events.In 1982, he won the table tennis singles event at the Commonwealth Table Tennis Championships (in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia), before partnering with Sunday Eboh to take the doubles gold in the same discipline. Along with Francis Sule, Atanda, again, won the table tennis doubles gold medal at the 1985 Commonwealth Games.
  • He achieved a clean sweep of gold in each of the singles, men's doubles and mixed doubles events representing Nigeria at the 1987 All-Africa Games and then, in 1991, with Bose Kaffo as partner, he won the Commonwealth Games' Mixed Doubles event for table tennis. Arguably one of the best table tennis players to contest out of Africa, Musa's backhand play, and the loop associated with it remains his pièce de résistance. 10-time African Men's Table Tennis Singles Champion, Atanda Musa currently lives and coaches table tennis in the United States of America.
