CHAIRMAN, Delta State chapter of Nigeria School Sport Federation (NSSF), Christopher Omughele, said that the state was poised to win medals at the ongoing Fifth National School Sports Festival.
The festival, which started last Friday, would end on February 2 in Port Harcourt.
Omughele told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Port Harcourt that the state was determined to repeat the feat it achieved at the last 18th National Sports Festival (NSF) held in Lagos last year.
According to him, the state was prepared to ensure a medal sweep, just as it did at Eko 2012 Games.
“We have come to win and to take the first position; we have done it before in the adult sports; now in the school sports, we want to convince Nigerians that Delta has the capability and the potential to perform either in school sports or in adult sports.
“We came with athletes in all events; so, we are ready to grab all the gold medals, because we are prepared, the governor of Delta State made sure that everything that is needed was provided for us.
