Secretary General of NTTF, Bola Adedeji, said Union Bank was picked to represent Nigeria following their superlative performance at the National Club Championship last year.

He said the Federation believes that Union Bank has the team to give Nigeria a good outing in Morocco.

Meanwhile, the Bankers have been strategising for local and  international competitions.

The Samson Ajayi-handled team humbled the Ogun State Table Tennis Club 3-1 at the Alake Sports Centre, Abeokuta over the weekend.

Ogun State Director of Sports, Faleti Fasola and Head Coach, Risikat Ramon have poured encomiums on the Union Bank team, declaring that they would go places.

It has also been gathered that the team would have a rematch with the Nigeria Civil Defence team in Lagos towards exposing the team technically and physically. The Bankers had won in Abuja earlier.
