Oyo state government has tasked the state athletes to exhibit passion, discipline, and excellence at the ongoing Ogun 2025 National Sports Festival.

Governor Seyi Makinde made the call while receiving the ’’Touch of Unity’’ for the festival, at the entrance of the state Governor’s Office, Agodi Secretariat, Ibadan.

Governor Makinde, who spoke through the deputy Governor, Chief Adebayo Lawal, assured athletes of the state government’s commitment to supporting sports development through infrastructure provision, training facilities, and a conducive environment.

The governor urged the athletes to aim for bringing glory to Oyo state, and to uphold sportsmanship, integrity, and unity throughout the festival, promising recognition and reward to athletes who bring pride and honour to the state.

The Torch of Unity symbolises peace, unity, and brotherhood amongst Nigeria’s 36 states.

The Festival starts from May 13th to May 24th, 2025.
