The newly
inaugurated Award Panel Chairman for the Nigerian Sports Award, Dr. Kweku
Tandoh, has pledged to take the award to the next level as one of the most
revered awards for sports, not only in Nigeria but also in Africa and the rest
of the world.
Dr. Tandoh
stated this while unfolding the plans of the newly constituted panel to
reposition and advance the vision and mission of Nigerian Sports Award.
“After five
successful editions, the Nigerian Sports Award has evolved into a brand, it has
come to stay as Nigeria’s only award for all sports and not an award for a
particular sport,” Tandoh said.
He revealed
that part of the immediate task for the panel is to improve the visibility of
the brand as well as engagement with stakeholders in the Nigeria sporting
industry while also attracting more corporate sponsorships and partnerships for
the award.
Tandoh also
disclosed that the new panel would strive to increase the numbers of awards
gradually to cover the full spectrum of the sporting activities and also
partner with the awardees to embark on charitable causes that will bring about
sports development in Nigeria.
While
commending the organizers of the award and the past award panel for
successfully piloting the affairs of the award for the past 5 years, he
promised to improve on the content and the quality of the award night, in line
with international best practice.
