2022 NSF: SWAN Commends Bauchi State Government

The Sports Writers Association of Nigeria Bauchi state chapter wishes to commend the government of Bauchi state for honoring the state Athletes that won medals at the just concluded national sports festival in Asaba Delta state.

This gesture by the state Government to acknowledge and reward those that made it to the podium, is indeed the right step in the right direction, which if sustained will encourage hard amongst other Athletes and the upcoming.

However, the association is also calling on all relevant stakeholders in the state's sports section to as a matter of public interest, look into the number of allegations and complaints raised by Athletes and officials while in Asaba concerning their welfare and other matters related to their participation at the national event.

SWAN also wishes to call on the state Government to ensure timely release of sufficient funds to the state sports council whenever such National events are to take place.
