Joel Ajayi
Chairman House committee on Sports, Honourable Ekene Abubakar Adams says something drastic needs to be done to get Nigeria Sports working again, in the face of the current sporting challenges.
There are still uncertainties surrounding if Team Nigeria will have a good performance at next month’s Olympic games in Paris, France and the Nigeria senior National team is currently not doing well after finishing second at the Last AFCON in Ivory Coast.
The Chairman, House Committee on Sports, Honourable Ekene, who represents Chikun/Kajuru Federal constituency, reacting to the recent turn of events insisted that measures must be taken for genuine changes to be effected in Nigeria Sports.
“In civilised World people resign if they are not doing well and we can see with the Dortmund Coach, Edin Terzic, who has just resigned after losing the Uefa Champions league final. Maybe I am the one to even resign because the truth is People must learn how to throw in the towel if results are not good enough because I strongly believe Something must be done”
On if the House Committee on Sports will invite the leadership of the NFF, the lawmaker said ” the Minister of Sports has already invited them and he is in the right direction”.

NEDC Disowns Circulating MSc Education Support Fund Application
Joel Ajayi
The North East Development Commission (NEDC) has warned the public against a fake and unauthorised message circulating on social media about an alleged Education Support Fund for Master’s degree (MSc) students.
The Commission, in a disclaimer signed by its management on Friday, described the purported programme, including its stated requirements and the alleged submission point at the NEDC office in Polo, Maiduguri, as false and unauthorised.
According to the Commission, it is not currently receiving applications for any MSc Education Support Fund as contained in the circulating message.
NEDC therefore urged prospective applicants and other members of the public to disregard the information and avoid submitting personal documents to individuals or locations claiming to be acting on behalf of the Commission.
It specifically cautioned the public against releasing sensitive documents such as National Identification Number (NIN) slips, admission letters, identity cards and indigene certificates in connection with the purported programme.
The Commission further warned the public to remain vigilant against fraudulent schemes and the unauthorised use of NEDC’s name and identity to deceive unsuspecting applicants.
It advised members of the public seeking information on its programmes, interventions and opportunities to rely only on official NEDC communication channels and verified announcements issued by the Commission
