Engineer Gumel said, "I wanted to see a lot of African teams here in Nigeria for the African U17 Girl's Championship but they could not come due to financial issues. Nevertheless, the CAVB, under the leadership of Madam Bouchra Hajij, is doing her best, and this issue will be discussed at the next board of administration meeting to find ways to ensure African countries participate in other age groups.
"It is our collective duty to ensure we develop volleyball in Africa in order to match other continents".
Only three countries, which include host Nigeria, Egypt, and Cameroon, will be participating in the tournament after two countries pulled out due to logistics.
