Nigeria Tennis Live had broken the news of the Davis Cup captain leading the team to the qualifying series, explaining that the Nigeria Tennis Federation (NTF) had decided so.
And after the confirmation of the report by Mrs. Mariam Akande, the NTF Secretary, our correspondent has obtained some pictures of the proud moment Babalola posed with the children en route to Cotonou, Benin Republic.
