Eritrean cyclist Natnael Tesfatsion has told BBC Tigrinya that he is "very delighted" to have won the 14th edition of Tour du Rwanda on Sunday. 

The cyclist, who is a member of Drone hopper Androni Giocattoli, has won the tournament for a second time. His first title was in 2020.

Around 95 cyclists in 19 teams and national teams participated in the week-long race.

Eritrea's national team could not take part this year because of a lack of Covid vaccinations. Eritrea is the only country in Africa that has not started vaccinating to its population.
