International basketball guard, Abdulrahman Mohammed,  has been recalled from retirement to lead Nigeria Customs Service men’s basketball team as the second edition of the Nigerian Armed Forces and other Security Agencies is set to tip-off at the Indoor Hall of the MKO Abiola International Stadium, Abuja.

The championship will feature seven teams between April 15th through April 20th, 2024.

The teams include the Nigerian Army, Navy, Air Force, Nigeria Customs Service, the Nigeria Police, Civil Defence and the Correctional Centre (Prisons).

Abdulrahman who coached the Nigeria Customs women’s team to the FIBA Africa Zone 3 top spot last December will be joined by his several teammates like Daniel Moko, and Samson Ogunsanwo among others.

Team Coach Mohammed Abbah popularly known as ‘Jagu’ is confident that the team will not disappoint the Bashir Adewale Adeniyi-led Customs management.

“This is the first time we will participate in the championship because our players were not available when the first edition was held but we are up to the task.

“I have huge confidence in our players as they are tested both at the local and international scene with many having represented Nigeria in the past, concluded Coach Mohammed.
