Youth and Sports Minister Celebrates President-Elect Tinubu at 71




The Sports and Youth Development Minister Chief Sunday Dare congratulates the President-Elect Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu who clocks 71 today.


Chief Dare says, “Tinubu, you chose the road less travelled, see where it has led you.”


Congratulations to Nigeria’s foremost democrat and itinerant mobiliser and organiser, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu. 


71 years on, you remain the central personality in Nigeria’s democratic space no wonder you won a keenly contested and one of the freest and fairest elections in Nigerian history. 


You stand today as Nigeria’s President-Elect not by chance or happenstance, but by a divine path charted before now and your unquestionable commitment, investment and support in Nigeria’s democratic struggle and the birth of democracy. 


History is replete with the various roles you played in the various epochs of Nigeria’s development, and in February 2023 the moment, and indeed history found the man. You chose the road less travelled and see where it has led you. 


You are the kind of leader Nigeria needs now to continue to steer her in the paths of growth, progress, unity and prosperity after President Buhari.  


My prayer today is that God gives you many more years in good health and the wisdom, knowledge and understanding you need to move Nigeria Forward.

13th African Games:Minister of Sports Development Charges Athletes to Conquer Africa

13th African Games:Minister of Sports Development Charges Athletes to Conquer Africa _Says Nigeria is solidly behind them_ The Honourable Minister of Sports Development, Senator John Owan Enoh on Tuesday the 5th of March charged Nigeria’s contingent to the All Africa Games taking place in Ghana to conquer Africa.  Addressing the athletes onboard the aircraft scheduled to take them to Ghana for the tournament shortly before takeoff at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport Abuja, the Minister assured them that the entire nation was solidly behind them.  He further stated that although some of the athletes may be representing the country for the first time, the tournament affords them the opportunity to make the nation proud.

NPFL - STARTIMES DEAL: MALLAM SHUAIBU GARA GOMBE MISLEADING THE SPORTS INDUSTRY IN NIGERIA

NPFL - STARTIMES DEAL: MALLAM SHUAIBU GARA GOMBE MISLEADING THE SPORTS INDUSTRY IN NIGERIA My attention is seriously drawn to the fact that Mallam Gara Gombe clearly shows in his recent submission to the Guardian that he has ill interests and it isn't only about fighting for the interest of local football but also trying to show that he deserves to be the one leading Nigerian football through his open statements against the NPFL leadership he referred to as illegitimate in one of his recent releases. Remember, "what is good for the goose is also good for the garner." It is a fact he desires to get to the top of football leadership in Nigeria and he might feel at this point he alone has the monopoly of football administrative knowledge. Wouldn't you expect others to deliberately begin to employ similar tactics to topple your leadership too?  Gara Gombe said; quote: "Because Nigeria is a dumping ground you illegally appoint people to manage a league they know nothi...
