The Nigeria Basketball Federation (NBBF) led by Musa Kida has expressed deep shock over the death of Daniel Daudu, which occurred during the weekend.
The former Nigerian junior international, who was part of the junior D’Tigers to the 2007 World U20 Championship in Serbia, was reportedly killed in an accident when a truck carrying two trailers rolled over on Indiana’s south side.
Reacting on behalf of the Nigeria basketball family, Kida described the circumstance leading to the death of the 28 year old who grew up at the Police College in Ikeja as shocking.
According to the president, the sudden death of the 2015 graduate of the University of Indianapolis has left the NBBF distraught.'' It’s a sad feeling to lose somebody so close no matter the age. Losing Daniel at the age of 28 and the circumstance which it happened is something that has left us all in shock''.
''We just have to take solace in him and also rally round his family at this trying period to provide the needed emotional support to weather the storm. The Players Representative on the NBBF board, Ejike Ugboaja alongside some US based national team players and basketball fans will be visiting the family of the deceased in Indiana''.
