2023 World Football Summit: Sports Minister interacts with Secretary General of the Spanish Football Federation On Possible Collaboration
The Honorable Minister of Sports Senator John Owan Enoh interacted closely with José Maria Arrabal Sedano, the Secretary General of the Spanish Football Federation, who seeks to collaborate with Nigeria in sharing resources and tools that will advance the sports ecosystem in Nigeria.
José Maria spoke extensively on the broad role of sports in Spain’s economy. As at 2023, 56% of the Spanish population engaged in sports at least three times a week, which has led to a €6.5B decrease in healthcare spend. Furthermore, he said they are using sports as a strategic tool to unify cultures and build patriotic values, and life skills.
Today being the final day of the World Football Summit 2023, possibilities were established with major stakeholders in sports. #JOE #WSF
