Ambassador Rivers to Meet NBA Global Ambassador

 NBA Global Ambassador, Dikembe Mutombo


Honorary Ambassador at Large for the Republic of Burundi, Clyde Rivers, had a great phone conversation with former Houston Rocket Player and current National Basketball Association Global Ambassador, Dikembe Mutombo.

Ambassador Rivers says of Mutombo, “He has been a major supporter of Africa. He built a $20 million school and health facility in his country, DR Congo. It will be good for us to meet concerning the great opportunities for us to work together in the Republic of Burundi. Sports is a major unifier of the young people of the world and the help of the NBA Global Ambassador to empower the youth of Burundi will be very valuable to the country of Burundi. I look forward to meeting Mr. Mutombo to discuss ways we can work together for the betterment of Burundi, Africa.”
