The Minsiter for youths and sports development, Sunday Dare has welcomed the reports of Edo 2020 committee as he seeks to assess, study and examine recommendations therein.
The Committee was promulgated so as to make recommendations, way outs with the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic as it ultimately puts the Festival preparation in indefinite suspension.
“We shall study the report, sit down with relevant agencies of government to examine the recomendations there-in. The Ministry is properly guided by Covid-19 protocol and will not shy away from taking decisions based on the reality on the ground,” the sport minister explained.
Dare further said” This is a milestone to determine when to start sporting activities, but we would not jeorpadise the health and wellbeing of our sportsmen and women”
The committee had made several recommendations which would be scrutinized before a final decision is taken on the hosting of the festival.
