In line with his avowed mandate of discovering young talents and nurturing them to stardom, Minister of Youth and Sports Development Mr Sunday Dare has offered scholarship to a five-year old boxing sensation Ayomide Adeyemo (pictured aboove).

Dare’s grassroots development agenda had led to the discovery of young boxer Shekinat, a swimmer nicknamed Fish and the Yakubu sisters dubbed the Williams sisters of Nigerian tennis for their prowess on the tennis courts.
