Organisers Promise Top-notch Event As SV Awards Holds Thursday

The Organising Committee of this year’s Sportsville Special Recognition Award ceremony is leaving no stone unturned to ensure a successful hosting of the much-anticipated event.

Members of the committee led by the ebullient Chairman, Adekunle Salami, held the last pre-event meeting where details of preparation were discussed and concerns addressed thereafter.

“I can say with all confidence that we are set for another first class award ceremony come April 3rd,” Salami who spoke immediately after the meeting assured all.

He added; “it’s important we take this year’s ceremony to a higher dimension from what we had last year and that is why we needed this meeting to fine-tune preparations.

“Having heard from my members and the Chief Executive Officer of Sportsville Communication Services Ltd, Hon Frank Ilaboya, I want to assure our Awardees and guests of another thrilling experience on April 3rd.

“All the necessary plans for a top class hosting have been put in place and we pray to God to crown our efforts with success,” he added.

One of the nominees for the ceremony, Dr Terry Eguaoje, also yesterday assured the organisers of his presence, same with Rotimi Pedro and Kingsley Awodi.

Eguaoje, who spoke from his US base, says he has already booked his ticket to Nigeria. “My brother, I am just calling to confirm again my coming for the ceremony. As I speak with you, I have just booked my flight for the trip,” the President of Football Coaches of all nations (FCAAN), said.

Same cheering news came from Rotimi Pedro and Kingsley Awodi, who, like Dr Eguaoje, reassured the organisers of their physical attendance.

Dignitaries expected for the ceremony include heavyweights and the creame de la creame of sports in Nigeria.
