After kicking the African champions D’Tigress out of the 2022 FIBA Women’s Basketball World Cup, the Federation of International Basketball Associations has threatened further sanctions against Nigeria.
The decision to have Nigeria banned from the World Cup in Sydney, Australia came after the Federal Government withdrew from international basketball competitions.
A week after the withdrawal, FIBA, in a letter addressed to factional Nigeria Basketball Federation president Musa Ahmadu-Kida, signed by Jaime Lamboy, Head of Legal, FIBA and dated May 18, 2022, warned Nigeria of possible sanctions.
