Monrovia – The 2019 edition of Liberia Basketball Association (LBA) is expected to kick off this weekend but several stakeholders are not pleased with the time given by the association’s administration for the completion of registration for the league. Report by A. Macaulay [email protected]One of such stakeholders is Mr. Abraham Samukai, president of female division side, K-Delta. He accused the Rufus Anderson administration of failing to inform them at least a month to the beginning of the registration process but only informed them a week to the end of the registration process. When it comes to the US$500 debt K-Delta owes the Federation of International Basketball Association (FIBA) Africa, Samukai agreed that his team owes FIBA-Africa but called on the LBA leadership to give them time to pay the money. Letter received by K-Delta president from the LBA about the money K-Delta owed FIBA Africa reads:“I present compliments of the Liberia Basketball Association and use this medium to inform you that FIBA Africa has written to inform the Liberia Basketball Association about a pending ban and sanction of the LBA from its activities if debts owed FIBA Africa by your team is not paid by March 10, 2019.
