Samaila Sambawa, has lauded Mr Sunday Dare’s capacity as Minister, saying the Federal Government has found the most capable individual, with the capacity to curb youth restiveness through sports.
“I am a big fan of Sunday Dare and I have done my little from afar, to support his success story. I like the way he started and I am happy with every step he has taken so far. If not for the ten athletes that were disqualified during the Games, I was very confident that Team Nigeria would have won at least five medals at the Tokyo Olympics.
The Kebbi State born politician added that: “If the federal government can put 10% of what they invest on security into sports development, in five years, millions of Nigerian youths will be taken off the streets and be meaningfully engaged and billions of dollars will be coming as remittances from Nigerian talents scattered abroad.
