Sports Legendary Awards: Governors Fintiri, Mutfwang, Diri Honored for Commitment to Sports and Youth







The Executive Governor of Adamawa State, Rt. Hon. Ahmadu Umar Fintiri, has been nominated for the 2024 Sports Legendary Award, recognized as the "Most Supportive Sports Governor in Northern Nigeria for the Year 2024." This prestigious nomination comes from the Celebrity Sports Magazine and Kingdom Star Sports International Foundation, the organizers of the Sports Legendary Award.

The nomination acknowledges Governor Fintiri's exceptional contributions to the development of sports in Adamawa State. His commitment to youth empowerment and sports development has been particularly noteworthy. 

The organizers highlighted his sponsorship of various sporting programs, with a special emphasis on football, and his dedication to completing a state-of-the-art stadium in Yola, the state capital, by March 2025. These initiatives, they noted, reflect his exemplary leadership and forward-thinking vision.

In addition to his contributions to sports, Governor Fintiri's compassionate approach to governance was praised. The organizers pointed to his Fintiri's E-Wallet program, which provided financial support to 10,000 beneficiaries across Adamawa's 21 local government areas, and his empowerment of over 45,000 youths in various trades. 


These efforts are seen as a testament to his commitment to improving the lives of the people in Adamawa State.

The award ceremony is slated to take place later this year, where Governor Fintiri will be honored for his unwavering commitment to sports development and his selfless service to humanity.

In related nominations, Plateau State Governor Barr. Caleb Mutfwang was recognized for his steadfast commitment to promoting sports development in Plateau State, while Bayelsa State Governor Sen. Douye Diri was acknowledged for his significant contributions to youth empowerment and sports in Bayelsa State.

Additionally, Barr. Paul Edeh, Founder of Ratel Sports Development Foundation and Chairman of the Benue State Football Association, was nominated for his outstanding contributions to sports development in Nigeria.

This spectacular event, endorsed by the Federal Ministry of Sports Development, will be held at Exclusive Serene Hotel, Abuja on Thursday, 12th September, 2024, starting at 6 o'clock in the evening.
