The Minister assured of his commitment to ensure a complete turn around in the sector in line with the policy thrust of the present administration.
Senator Enoh therefore called on staff and officials of the Ministry as well as sports federations, to bring their wealth of experience and expertise to bear, in ensuring that the country has the best representations in all competitions.
Speaking earlier, the Permanent Secretary, Overseeing the Federal Ministries of Sports and Youth Development, Alhaji Ismaila Abubakar assured that the Ministry will continue to create an enabling environment for the full implementation of sporting initiatives, policies and programmes for the development of the sector in the country.
