Kogi Assembly inaugurates House Committee on Youths, Sport

The Kogi State House of Assembly on Monday inaugurated house standing standing committee on Youth, Sport and Social Development.

Speaking at the inauguration ceremony, the Chairman of the committee who doubles as the member representing Bassa State Constituency Hon. Sunday Daku said the committee will vigorously pursued it constitutional requirements in developing Sport in Kogi State.

The lawmaker noted that the committee is acting in accordance to the functions of the Assembly as enshrined in section 4 sub-section 6-9 of the 1999 constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as amended.

Hon. Daku, however, appealed to all stakeholders to collaborate with the committee to ensure effective and efficient working relationship in the interest of the overall development of Kogi State.

*As Co-managers and drivers of development, we must work in harmony and be transparent as “outline in the New Direction Agenda of His Excellency Alhaji Yahaya Bello, the Executive Governor of Kogi State and avoid any tendencies that could hinder the process of developing the state.”

” Our target is total overhauling of Kogi Sport. I retired as a director of sports, and the problem we are facing in the sports circle today is lack of manpower and technical know how. If you get back to sports council today, down to the ministry of Youths and Sports, you will discover that the numbers of staff are not up to 50 remaining.

” This was an organization before now that has up to 6000 staff. We need performing athletes, star athletes, students and diaspora athletes. If we go world wide, everywhere you will discover that those performing are Kogites. This further underscore the fact that we have talents from Kogi State representing other State and Countries.

“We need some of our people who are already in the field of coaching to come back home. We need to introduce student programme, school sports, to bring in the young ones and ensure total grassroot development. That is the primary objective of this committee. By the special Grace of God, with the support we are getting from Kogi State Governor, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, we are optimistic that the sky is our limit.

He called on Kogites in the diaspora who are talented to come back home and make Kogi State the hub of sporting activities in Nigeria.

Earlier in his remarks, the Kogi State Commissioner for Youth and Sports Development Hon. Idris Musa said the ministry will be transparent for the committee to carry out their job diligently.

He used the medium to intimate the committee of the state preparedness in the forthcoming National Youth Games in Delta.
