After several backlashes following Nigeria Government withdrawing the Nation Basketball from International competition just weeks ago , the Federal Government has rescinded that decision.

This was disclosed by the Permanent Secretary Ministry of Youth and Sports development Ismaila Abubakar in a press statement.
