Edo State Deputy Governor Philip Shaibu spoke with journalists on the state’s preparedness for the forthcoming National Sports Festival, state of facilities and the strength of the state’s athletes ahead of the 20th edition of the festival.
Yes, we’ve since started. Since we got the approval to host this sports festival, our athletes have been going for national games in different categories and we have sponsored them. Why we’ve done that is to prepare them for this festival, to expose them, so that they can compete with the majority of the athletes that they are going to be competing with and we have done that beautifully well.
We have one of the best traffic management teams in Nigeria in Edo State as we speak and don’t forget that Benin City has the best road network in Nigeria. And what we have simply done, in line with our infrastructural revolution, is to tar a lot of these roads and we have also mapped out all the areas of interest, for instance, areas of accommodation, event areas, among others.
