“Moments like this remind us of the unifying power of sports and the need to continue investing in our youth, especially women, who continue to make Nigeria proud,” Engr. Farouk said.

His presence at the reception reflects his enduring commitment to national development, youth empowerment, and the promotion of excellence across sectors, including sports.
