    Sports Minister Dissolves Sports Federations, Sets Up Caretaker Committees

    The Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Sunday Dare has confirmed the dissolution of the boards of 31 National Olympic Sports Federations, with effect from today (Friday), April 30, 2021.

    The development comes barely a day after the rift between the ministry and Athletics Federation of Nigeria (AFN) cost the country its spots at the world athletics (WA) relays billed for Poland on May 1-2.

    In a statement issued on Friday, the minister stated that the move is in line with the Olympic Charter, which stipulates a four-year tenure for all Sports Federations Boards.

    The minister noted that a few of the National Sports Federations Boards performed remarkably well within the last four years while many others have been bogged down by unnecessary bickerings and divisions among the board members.

    The statement reads: “The tenure of the National Olympic Sports Federations in Nigeria have come to an end. There is a need for a transition from the old Boards to the new ones,” the statement read in part.

    Having run a full Olympic cycle, the Boards of the NSFs inaugurated on 21 June 2017 are hereby dissolved to pave way for fresh elections,” the Minister affirmed in Friday’s statement.

    “I wish to thank all the Board members for their contributions within the period they served in their various Federations Boards.

    “In order to ensure continuity in the administration of the Federations, Caretaker Committees are hereby put in place to manage the affairs of the Federations until elections are conducted and the new Boards inaugurated.”

    Dare also said that caretaker committees have been set up to manage the affairs of the federations pending when fresh elections are conducted and the new boards inaugurated.

    Below are the caretaker committee members who will run the affairs of the 31 National Sports Federations until the inauguration of new Boards, as provided by the minister.

      Posturing, inflated egomania, intellectual barrreness and corruption, are the hallmarks of boards in Nigeria. People appointed to oversight functions in sports engage in mutual sword fighting for contracts and travel allowances. Are we surprised that the nation’s athletes are always finishing last at the Olympics?
