Mukama Sandra d’Amour explaining the components of the logo
Since November 2018, the Rwanda Basketball Federation (ferwaba) has been using a logo in its activities with the sponsorship of Bank of Kigali art works.
After parting ways with them, Ferwaba decided to design a unique logo to be used in competitions organized by the federation especially in the first and second division.

During Wednesday press conference, they explained that the reason was that they had already parted ways with their sponsor and its art works “was in our national league logo, so they had to find a special logo,” says Jabo Landry, the federation’s operations manager.
“As you know we couldn’t keep up with BK as our sponsor, and you know that the league logo was composed by their artworks, so after we didn’t continue, we had to make a special league logo which is what you see here,” he said.
