Federal Capital Territory (FCT) director of sports, Mrs Delichuckwu Onyedinma has refrained from completely ruling the hosts out of this year’s National Sports Festival in December.
Though reports are fife with information that the FCT will not feature athletes at Abuja 2018 due to lack of funds, Onyedinma said it is not yet a closed issue.
Onyedinma said in a chat with sports247.ng that the sports department of the FCT is still not ruling out the possibility of presenting athletes.
She reasoned that it would be uncanny for the FCT to be missing with athletes among the competitors in a festival they would be co-hosting.
Onyedinma stressed: “It is not true that we have totally decided not to present athletes.
“Talks are still ongoing with the FCT administration to see that our athletes, who are still in camp, are not disappointed.”
