Tonye Jekiri: “I’m very grateful to be chosen to come here”

June 14, 2024

The Aika sport complex’s wall of fame has been replenished with autographs from world basketball stars.

#ARCTIC. #SIBERIA. THIS IS TAIMYR. CSKA club players went on an excursion to Aika and left autographs on the wall of fame.

CSKA club center Tonye Jekiri called the sports hall a stunning arena from an architectural point of view and a very special place:

“It attracts a lot of kids, and it’s great that they can study here. I think the city residents are very grateful to have such a platform and such an opportunity. In my childhood I didn’t have such an arena to train in”.

He also noted that Aika is a place where future athletes can meet stars:

“And we can share something that we received as big stars. So I’m very grateful to be chosen to come here and play in a stellar match and share my skill and my love with the kids. It’s an honor for me”.

We previously wrote that basketball player Casper Ware signed a contract with CSKA for another two years. The signing of the document took place at a depth of 750 meters.
