The Director-General of the National Institute for Sport (NISport), John Dadi-Mamud, says the management of the institute was poised to improve the lot of the institute but blamed the paucity of funds for the delay in its numerous programmes.
The DG, who spoke against the backdrop of the oversight visit by the House of Representatives Committee on Sports to the National Stadium Lagos, said that the visit would open new doors of opportunities.
“We have embarked on various reforms even before the Houses visit. Before the COVID-19 break, we have been doing some renovations.
“The problem with NISport has been the issue of funding to maintain our facilities. We have been told to improve on our revenue of which we are up to the task.
“We will redouble our efforts because as an insider, I know what the problems are and we have already embarked on various initiatives by rehabilitating the basketball pitch.
“By the next three months, NISport will wear a new look and with some more funds, we will put more things in order. We are also ready to partner with others to generate more funds, he said.
There is obviously a lot to know about this. I think you made some good points in Features also.Keep working ,great job!
