What if the money comes from his own pocket, at no Tax payer's expense?
Dude, Trump ain’t using his personal money to host the other G-7 leaders. It’s taxpayers that foot the bill. Now, because it will be hosted at his private resort, whatever payments made by the delegations of the foreign goes directly to his pocket
Foreign AffairsRe: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by PDPGuy(op): 3:45am On Aug 28, 2019
It has to be illegal for a sitting president to host an international meeting at his private resort. How ethical is it for the president to bill American taxpayers for hosting world leaders, and pocketing the proceeds?

Point of correction:
This will be the first time the Nigerian men’s team would be playing in the final, since 2003, when they lost 0-2 to Cameroon.

Lol.. it had to take an official White House statement to denounce an obvious lie. Sometimes, I wonder if Trump intentionally lies or he just wants to entertain us with outrageous statements grin

The final roster looks formidable, and I’m especially excited that Jordan Nwora made the final cut!
Still maintaining that the team is good enough to make the quarterfinals, at the very least

For the second leg they will be available but they won't travel to Algeria because there won't be enough time to secure them a visa.

It was actually in the 2012 Olympics that Team USA thrashed D’Tigers by an 80-point margin. But if there is a rematch in China, the gap wouldn’t be that huge

D’Tigers beat Poland 87-84 in overtime at the Peak Invitational tournament.
The victory was even more impressive as they had to claw back a 16-point deficit!!

Good job bro.

Do you see us beating Russia and Argentina

I believe we will beat South Korea

Seems were the 3rd ranked in our group
It’s gonna be tough, but this team has the talent to beat those other team.
The teams I’m really scared of are the U.S. and Spain! I believe they are head and shoulders above every other team.
In fact, the Spanish team are slightly better than the American team only because the Americans aren’t coming to the tournament with their top NBA stars like Curry, Kawhi Leonard, or Kevin Durant.

Funny enough, if D’Tigers finish as runners up in the second group stage, and win their quarterfinal, they would likely come up against...the United States in the semifinal!

D’Tigers are good enough to advance to the quarterfinals or beyond

Nigeria’s senior men’s basketball national team, D’Tigers have arrived in China for the last phase of their FIBA World Cup preparation.

The team, which departed Lagos through the Murtala Mohammed International Airport aboard Emirate Airline, arrived in China on Wednesday night before proceeding to Yangzhou for the Peak Invitational International tournament, which started yesterday and will end on August 27.

The Coach Alex Nwora tutored side with 15 players still in camp eight days to the World Cup will compete against fellow World Cup bound Iran, Montenegro and Poland as they perfect their plans.

Nwora revealed that he would release the final 12-man list after their Peak Invitational campaign on August 27 ahead of their first game against Russia on August 31.Nigeria, whose last appearance at the World Cup was in 2006, is grouped alongside Russia, Argentina and Korea.

Meanwhile, the Nigeria Basketball Federation (NBBF) has thanked President Muhammadu Buhari for his fatherly role in the senior women basketball team’s 2019 Afrobasket triumph.

steady986:
Don't sleep on Promise Amukamara. You could see that coach Otis trusted her to be the primary ball handler in the finals, even when Ezinne was on the court. She made some important 3s to settle the nerves too. I'd put her in there. Akhator is more a forward than a guard. Ibekwe would drop to the bench.
The competition amongst the players would only be to our benefit.
Imagine Amukamara starting a game, and in the 2nd quarter, coach Otis subs in Arike for her. That one na from frying pan to fire for the opposition grin grin

somehow:
It's high time ministries learn to generate IGI for themselves. HABA, so if the government doesn't release money, they can get sponsors, yet don't want government interference. This needs to stop. They should package the sport (All sports), none should be even 60% dependent on government.
Completely agree

Oshoala and ordega best asset is their pace they thrive in a attacking formation they enjoy it when the ball is played in from of them to chase because they have pace to burn ..example Nigeria second goal vs korea at the just concluded world cup and Nigeria second goal vs Sweden 2015 world cup ...going in forward 4-3-3 is our best formation
The coach can also try the 4-2-1-3 or 4-1-4-1 systems

Unless Otedola, Dangote or any of these other mazajes step into the picture I don't see any private establishment pumping that amount into the female team alone.

With the number of girls we have playing in US colleges we should be top 3-5 in the World behind only US and maybe Australia. Even my WCW Liz Cambage I heard her dad is Nigerian
You don't mean it? shocked See better talent that would have helped Naija in the past!
Anyway, I hope Felicia Aiyeotan of Virginia Tech won't turn down an invite to D'Tigress. She was born and lived in Nigeria till she was in her late teens. She stands at a massive 6"9".

I’ve taken a look at the FIBA eligibility rules, and I discovered that Arike Ogunbowale could still play for Nigeria if she acquired a Nigerian passport before she turned 16!

Lmaoooo if you had a kid would you advice them to play for Nigeria? I see most of these guys as humanitarians because it's only football that provides some compensation for your services. I wouldn't advice Arike to come and play here, even in the WNBA most of those babes are underpaid talk less of Nigeria
It all depends on whether the NBBF can secure a decent commercial sponsorship to the tune of $900,000/yr or more.
If they can pull it off, and guarantee a bonus of, say, $400/day in camp allowance and $5,000 per game, the likes of Arike and other WNBA or college players could be tempted to play for Nigeria.

Anyways, my dream D’Tigress starting five would be: Ezinne Kalu, Evelyn Akhator, Arike, Ibekwe, and Adaora Elonu.
