Nigeria
national basketball team coach, Ayodele Bakare, has yesterday announced
his resignation as team coach at the end of an encounter against France
that marked their exit from the Olympic Basketball tournament.
The coach explained that he was resigning for main reasons:
“First,
I have been fortunate to be the first Nigerian coach to take this team
to an African championship and second, I am also the first coach to take
the men's team to an Olympics. I want to say that l have seen it all as
a coach. Nigeria has won eight championships and l have been privileged
to win seven out of the eight as a coach,” he said.
He
is yet to inform the Nigeria Basketball Federation officially so that
they can hire another coach to continue from where he stopped.
