I'm glad Mahmoud was elected by the majority using the novel electronic voting system. This shows that the NBA is forward thinking and embraces positive change. Regardless of this glaring fact, I bet my left ball that some mentally challenged youth will still ascribe this to PMB/'northernocracy'. Modified: Emeka71: **** 18 Likes 2 Shares |

I thought NBA is led by a chairman and not president (and this is a case of another northerner after they must have held meeting within the NBA). 5 Likes |
