Buhari celebrates D'Tigress Team, awards each member the sum of 1M


Pres. Buhari on Wednesday presided over his first meeting ‎of the Federal Executive Council, FEC, since April.

Excluding the over 100 days for which he was out of Nigeria for health treatment, ‎the president had missed five consecutive meetings, two of which were cancelled.

The president had earlier before commencement of the meeting, met with the Nigerian women basketball team who recently emerged African champions, where he announced that each D’Tigress player will get a reward of N1m.

Apart from the players, the officials who guided them will receive the sum of N500,000 each. Nigeria defeated defending champions Senegal to win the trophy in Mali on Sunday night.
