stated that the Basketball governing body, FIBA, limited the number of teams to
represent Nigeria to just four teams rather than five earlier scheduled.

Hoopers will play no part in the ongoing FIBA Africa Champions Cup Zone 3
qualifiers and will return to their base on Monday.
Mark
Mentors, Civil Defenders, Gombe Bulls and Kano Pillars are the four Nigerian
