Minister of Youth and Sports Development Sunday Dare says the National Sports Industry Policy will accelerate sports development and add value to the country’s sportsmen and women.
Speaking while receiving the draft of the policy in Abuja, Dare described the development as a milestone with the capacity to change sports business in Nigeria.
“I recall the opportunity I had during the 25th Nigerian Economic Summit, to chair its Sports Industry Business Roundtable Session. The session featured various speakers from all sectors emphasising the challenges in developing sports as a viable business sector capable of attracting investments and delivering returns to investors. This gave birth to setting up various groups to review our 2009 sports policy, which no doubt is now obsolete.
“It is important to note that this reviewed National Sports Industry Policy will proffer solutions to four key issues, infrastructure, investment, incentives and policy that will drive sports to the next level.”
