President Bola Tinubu has congratulated Ms. Rena Wakama, D’Tigress’ coach, on her recognition as the best coach of women’s basketball at the Paris 2024 Olympics.

The Nigeria women’s basketball team, D’Tigress, put up a spectacular performance at the Olympics, becoming the first African basketball team to play in the quarter-finals at the Olympic Games.

A statement by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, quoted Tinubu as stating that the recognition of Ms. Wakama, 32, by the International Basketball Federation (FIBA), further accented her well-established leadership qualities and dedication to excellence.

The President commended the team, the coach, and all those who played a part in the unprecedented feat at the Olympics, enjoining them not to relent or become crestfallen, but remain resilient and determined for greatness, according to the statement.
