Governor Chukwuma Soludo has said that Anambra contingents are domestically prepared to clinch major trophies in upcoming Gateway Games in Ogun state.
The Governor stated this at the Government House Awka when he received the Torch of Unity of the National Sports Festival scheduled to hold in Ogun State from May 16th, 2025.
Addressing the national delegation, alongside members of the state Sports Commission and sports enthusiasts who gathered to witness the ceremony, Governor Soludo, represented by his Chief of Staff, Mr Chinedu Nwoye, said that the origin of the National Sports Festival is a deliberate policy by the Federal Government to unite the various sections of Nigeria immediately after the Nigerian civil war in 1970, saying that sports has the potential of making the society better, just as he urged Anambra athletes to adequately prepare themselves for the festival.
Also speaking, the Team Leader Unity Cup, National Sports Commission, Ikana Mbora, said the torch was in the state to inform the state government that the festival is about to kick off, adding that the festival will hold from May 16 to 30 in Abeokuta, capital of Ogun, South West geo-political zone.
