DELTA 2022: Edo will fight for every medal says Alli, thanks the government for the support
Alli also revealed that the state government has invested heavily in the team that will represent Edo State at the NSF
The Executive Chairman of Edo State Sports Commission Yussuf Amuda Alli on Friday said the state is not going to Delta State, the host state of the 2022 National Sports Festival, to make up the number but to fight for all medals at stake and make the podium appearances in all.
In a statement signed by Olukayode Thomas, Alli’s Media Advisor, the Executive Chairman with the backing of the Edo State Government, has ensured that the state is not just The Heartbeat of the Nation but also Nigeria’s New Sports Destination.
He said the only way to reward the Edo State Government for it unalloyed to the State Sports Commission is to return from Delta State with a basket full of medals in December,
Alli also revealed that the state government has invested heavily in the team that will represent Edo State at the NSF, “the only way we can reward the government and the good people of Edo State for all they have done for Sports is to fight for every medal at the festival and win it.
“Our athletes, coaches and other class of officials are highly motivated and they are ready to do the state proud at the NSF’’ concluded Alli.
