According to the Olympian, the attire was too big and it did not sit perfectly on his body. Hence, he did not wear it and also did not attend the closing ceremony of the games.
The competition began on July 26, 2024, and the closing ceremony was held on Sunday, August 11. Though the Nigerian contingent did not win any medals at the games, Rena Wakama, the coach of D’Tigress, won the best basketball coach of the tournament.
