Under the leadership of coach Rena Wakama, the Nigerian team secured a 78–64 victory over Mali in the final, held at the Palais des Sports de Treichville in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire, on Sunday night.

This marks the team’s fifth consecutive championship win and their seventh overall FIBA Women’s AfroBasket title.
