The Organisers of the much anticipated Niger Delta Sports Festival have added colour to the event’s organisation with the appointment of festival Ambassadors.
Nwankwo Kanu, Emmanuel Amuneke, Victor Ikpeba and Blessing Oborodudu are among the strong field of accomplished athletes appointed as Festival Ambassadors for the sporting event scheduled to open from April 1-8 in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State.
It was a major step towards accomplishing the aspirational value of the NDSF as envisioned by the organisers, Dunamis Icon, consultants to the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) for the project.
Announcing the Ambassadors, Itiako Ikpokpo, the lead consultant at Dunamis Icon, said the Festival Ambassadors were picked to inspire the upcoming athletes.
“What we have done is to take a careful look at past and present sportsmen and women from the nine mandate states of the NDDC who can inspire upcoming athletes with their achievements on and off the field”, Ikpokpo told NDSF Media.
