Nice performance Bakare and thank your for all your contribution to the development basketball in Nigeria. If the news is true then thing may be getting betterfor Nigeria, for a coach to resign and not sack. 1 Like |

Oh! He's not resigning as a result of the defeat, but cos according to him he has seen it all with the team....how convenient! Would he still have taken this step if his team won a medal in the Olympics?#thinkingoutloud 2 Likes |

Much respect fσr the coach. It takes a man ϯo admit his mistakes anϑ a biggeer man ϯo atone fσr his mistakes. Politicians with worse implicating goofs annd mistakes added with criminal acts of corruption have ϯo borrow a leaf from such. Hmmm.. a few come ϯo mind  3 Likes |

He had better be. Cos he ll be sacked anyway when he returns. Don't know who to blame for Team Nigeria's failure. Let's just move forward, put things in place & prepare harder to avoid another draught of medals in 2016. |

Did I hear him say he has seen it all? Has he seen Olympic gold, silver or even bronze  Or he doesn't know what seeing it all means ni? Anyways, he's got achievements & I think he tried his best. Seriously, That US thrashing is unbearable |

Dis Guy: Nigerians are hard to please and mostly ignorantGbam!! I don't know why we always expect something from football too when our talent discovery is zero, youth development bad, a very poor league and mediocre players who don't even play for big teams. Our problem is we always expect to win miraculously even when we've done nothing to warrant a win. 1 Like |

Why resign? We are so fond of running away from challenges, giving in to our failures as opposed to dusting up self and try again. It sucks! Goodluck to him. 1 Like |

ifyalways: Why resign?the man gave his best.from what i heard,he personally took charge of most of the arrangements for the team's training,flights etc because the NBBF wasnt forthcoming.he had hinted before the olympics that hhe will leave the team after the olympics so itss not a suprise.i am certain no federation in their right senses would have thought of sacking bakare.he deserves to be applauded 3 Likes |
