Governor Alia vows to support sports development

Gov. Hyacinth Alia of Benue State has pledged his administration’s support for sports development in the state.


The governor, represented by his Deputy, Mr Samuel Ode, said this on Friday in Makurdi, at the grand finale of the 2023 edition of the Benue State Football League, sponsored by Ratels Sports Development Foundation, Abuja, (RSDF).


“There is no doubt that there is nothing that unites Nigeria more than sports, especially football,” pledging that as a government will do everything possible to promote sports in the State,” Rev. Fr. Alia said.


He commended the sponsor of the tournament, Mr. Paul Edeh, proprietor of Naija Ratels Football Club, Abuja, for being a worthy Benue sports ambassador.


Earlier, Edeh told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that his foundation, RSDF, has been sponsoring the league as a way of giving back to the society.


Edeh, who is running for the Chairmanship of the Benue State Football Association (FA) in Saturday’s election, stressed the need for more grassroots football development.


“For me, this is a thing of joy because it is grassroots football and I am amazed at the level of skills displayed by the players.NYSC Portal


“Ratel Foundation is also ready to offer Benue Referees the scholarship to go for NIS training,” he said.
