The Nasarawa State government has commenced preparations to build a new mini stadium in the state, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The Nasarawa State Commissioner for Youth and Sports Development, Hon. Kwanta Yakubu, on Wednesday, led a high powered delegation to the site where a mini sports stadium will be constructed in Wamba Local Government Area of the State.

The Commissioner, Kwanta Yakubu, expressed optimism that the project would be completed within the stipulated timeframe and would serve as a hub for sports activities in the area and Nasarawa Northern Zone.

 "The visit here today is in compliance with the directive of the Governor, Engr. Abdullahi Sule, regarding his dedication towards sports development in the State.

 "Recall that the Governor made it categorically clear that he wants to have a signature in sports across the State, and part of that is the construction of mini sports stadia in the three senatorial districts of the State.

"Wamba Local Government Area is, hitherto, one of the selected locations for the siting of the mini stadium.

"We have interfaced with the Executive Chairman of the Local Government Area as well as the paramount ruler of Wamba, and collaboratively, they have allocated a befitting site along Ungow-Wayo Road, just a stone throw from Wamba town.

 "We are here with a renowned architect from the Ministry of Works, and experts, as well as the potential contractors, and before the end of the next two weeks, we should be able to come out with the architectural design for the stadium, and other related documents for full commencement of the legacy project.

"The Governor is committed to his pledge to the people of Wamba and Nasarawa State as a whole regarding delivering quality sporting infrastructure to meet the growing number of young athletes in the State.

"Once completed, this project will not only aid the discovery of hidden sporting potentials in the benefiting communities but also help in boosting the revenues and attracting investments to the State."

The proposed 500 capacity Wamba mini stadium is expected to feature a standard football field, laid with artificial turf, athletic tracks, changing rooms, and a modest indoor sport hall.
