Former D Tigers captain, Olumide Oyedemi says he has no regrets about missing the 2016 Olympic Games.
The 39year old made the statement while speaking to brila.net, citing that he had to make the ultimate sacrifice for the team.
Oyedeji, who led Nigeria to her first Afrobasket title, missed out on Nigeria’s premier basketball appearance at the showpiece.
“I have no regrets. I’m delighted at how far basketball has come in Nigeria. In 2011, nobody wanted to associate with this team”, he posited.

The former Seattle Supersonics star turned down the invitation to play for Greece because for him it was Nigeria or nothing.
