The National Souths Basketball League (NSBL) Tournament for this year got underway two days ago in Goroka EHP. Yesterday the event was officially opened by the Governor for Eastern Highlands Hon. Peter Numu, Member for Goroka, Hon Aiye Tambua, Lady Marape and Secretary for Works Mr. David Wereh.
While apologising that he was not briefed early he pledged K50,000 next year. However if the game is held in Goroka again next year he will double the amount. The Goroka MP allocated K10,000 to the tournament and the families and friends of Works Secretary organised dinner for all 20 teams taking part in the tournament.
Today we will have the Prime Minister's wife and daughter will be playing for City Rangers team.
Although there have been confusions over the executives and management of the tournament the tournament has recieved huge recognition and support.
Stay tuned!
