Why is basketball neglected in nigeria?in nigeria today,any money that is brought out for sports in nigeria yearly is being use only in the football aspect....why is it supposed to be so?All young people that choose the basketball career doesn't make it here in nigeria and that is so much alarming
One of the reasons to start financing basketball in nigeria is that it will help to reduce the unemployment rate in nigeria cus its not everybody that is meant to be successful academically....pls I need your answers to my question and major ways to make basketball be recognised in nigeria
Pls I need the advice of matured minds only.....thanks for your time

My take on this is the people we have in government lack the ingenuity required to solve our myriads of problems. Sports & agriculture are 2 areas, in addition to entertainment, capable of absorbing about 70% of the unemployed/underemployed Nigerians. However, our political leaders think development is all about erecting some physical structures without commensurate human development. As for money being put into football, it is true. However, the money being put into it isn't for development of the game, but for administrative overheads. THE SOLUTION? The solution lies with passionate individuals such as you and I. As for me, I've decided I'll ensure that Nigeria produces a grandslam winner in lawn tennis within the next 30 years. And am not looking up to the government for assistance. Am presently taking baby steps in that direction and am certain it is doable. You too can have similar dreams for development of basket ball in Nigeria. Success
