The stadium, wearing a new look.
The
Abuja National Stadium is now wearing a new look, thanks to the
Minister of Sports and Chairman of the National Sports Commission (NSC)
Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi who issued a directive to the Director of
Facilities at the NSC Abubakar Magaji that the stadium’s glory must be
restored.
I
think the Minister was too ashamed of how the stadium looks, especially
when the unkempt pictures were circulating through the internet media,
and people were expressing their displeasure over the sorry and dilapidated state of the stadium.
Well
the government has responded, and the stadium has been on a visit to
the ''barber'' over the weekend, and can been seen to have gotten a new
and hair cut.
Repair
works was said to have started at the stadium on Friday, September
14th and the following day, a major part of the renovation had been
carried out.
The
Honourable Minister was said to have issued a query to the Director of
Facilities, Magaji, over the sorry state of the Abuja Stadium recently,
and shortly after the query, routine works began at the stadium, and a few days later, it is wearing a new look.
