The Caretaker Committee Chairman of the Nigeria Basketball Federation NBBF, Engineer Ahmadu Musa Kida, has expressed his readiness to serve for a second term in the top position of Basketball in the country.
Kida made the declaration in Abuja, at a Press conference ahead of the 2021 Basketball Premier League seasons which dunks off simultaneously in the Atlantic and Savannah conferences.
“For me, what is important to go into the elections is for us to be able to make this programmes very sustainable. In my consultations, the last four years has been interesting. Basketball is a sport that Nigerians are expecting Nigeria to go out and win without excuses. So for me, we are on a good path. I am ready to serve in whatever capacity that I can in order to put these structures in place; so that Nigerian Basketball will be better.”
Kida, also noted that position does not matter. “President or not, the most important thing is to sustain the legacy already achieved. I am ready to serve if the NBBF finds me fit” Kida said .
