The Minister of Youth and Sports Development in Nigeria, Sunday Dare, has assured that a new Sports Industry Policy will soon be approved with Sports Academies playing key role in talent discovery.
The Minister made this assertion when he hosted winners of the maiden edition of the National Principal’s Cup, Fosla Academy, in Abuja.
Dare congratulated the students, staff of FOSLA academy, and the proprietor Sani Lulu Abdullahi for emerging champions of the revived competition.
He said that President Mohammadu Buhari had asked that the NFF under the supervision of the Ministry, should produce a 10 year football master plan.
The Minister said because of the experience the Ministry had in bringing back the Principal’s Cup which is now renamed National Principal’s Cup, the next edition of the competition will commence on a much larger scale with more schools participating.
In his response, the Proprietor of Fosla Academy, Sanni Lulu Abdullahi thanked the Honourable Minister for his vision and hard work that has helped revive the Principal’s Cup.
