Quotes

"The governor has proved to be a sports loving one. What I particularly like about him is that he is addressing the problems of sports from bare basics, which is what I think other states should be doing. The state's sports development programme should be emulated by other governors. If this is done, Nigeria will, in no time reclaim her lost status as a super power in global athletics, he further said."
