“Currently, as the season is going on now, we are already discovering some new players. These players, who have gone to represent Nigeria internationally, were all products of the National Youth Games.”
Aka went on to reveal the roles being played by some states across rhe nation in supporting the federation’s resolve to focus fully on the production of new talents, then predicted that all their efforts across the country will soon bring global glory home.
“Most of the young players were brought by the different state associations to play in the competition. From there, we saw the talents, and we brought them to the centre.
“We then start to hone their skills and expose them further. We have not been wrong in that aspect. I am sure that once we continue along that line, one year is enough for us to bring the world championship title back to Nigeria,” Aka enthused
