The Nigeria Basketball Federation's Electoral Committee has finished reviewing candidates for the upcoming October 15 election in Abuja. Chairman Dr Lanre Glover announced that four presidential hopefuls were cleared while one was disqualified for submitting their nomination late. The cleared presidential candidates include Olumide Oyedeji, Igoche Mark, Mustapha Abdullahi, and Ejike Ugboaja.
Ayo Bakare was disqualified as his forms were received at 2:12 pm on October 8, just 12 minutes after the deadline. Ugo Udezue is the sole vice president candidate. Each of the four zones - South-South, North West, South West, and North East - have two candidates, while the North Central has one. The committee set three conditions for the contestants: Igoche Mark must submit his tax clearance by Monday or face disqualification, the federation must decide on affiliate members by October 14, and the international representative must present a letter from FIBA confirming their position.
