The National President of the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN), Comrade Saidu Abubakar has inaugurated a 12-man committee that will organise the golden jubilee of the association which is slated to begin next month. Inaugurating the committee at the Ahmadu Bello Stadium, Kaduna on Saturday, Abubakar noted that the celebration was earlier slated for last year, but could not hold due to the political situation in the country. "Since the past leaders failed to celebrate the silver jubilee, we can not afford to allow the golden jubilee to slip from our hands.
"The golden jubilee is important for us to pay glowing tributes to our founding members as well as to review our activities with the view of laying a solid foundation for the future," he said.
Abubakar stated that members of the committee were chosen after a wide range of consultation with stakeholders. The committee headed by Collins Udoh has Honour Sirawoo (vice chairman), Said Umar, Kayode Adeniyi, Moses Praise, Idris Malikawa, Ben Ogbemudia and Alloy Chukwuemeka as members.
Other members of the 12-man committee are representative of Owu sports, representative of Pillar of Sports in Nigeria, representative of Dr Ifeanyi Ubah and representative of the Standard Alliance Insurance.
