He said, “Congratulations to D’Tigress for making the nation proud again. I am so proud of our women’s basketball team, D’Tigress, for bringing home the FIBA Women’s AfroBasket Championship once again.

“Winning it seven times in total and five times consecutively is no small feat. It takes heart, discipline and grit. These women continue to show the world what Nigerian excellence looks like. It looks great and shines through.
