Onipe said there was no major challenge confronting the athletes and their officials presently, saying that adequate support was received from the state government to ensure full participation in the games.

Athletes from Kogi State at the Stephen Keshi Stadium, Asaba, Delta State, venue of the ongoing National Youths Games 2023.

He assured sport lovers in the state of overwhelming victory by the state contingent at the end of the competition.

Onipe expressed appreciation to Governor Yahaya Bello and the state Commissioner for Youth and Sports, Idris Musa for encouraging the participation of the athletes from the state at the games by releasing the needed funds to that effect.

The Director, however, did not give reason why the state contingent arrived the venue two days after the official start of the game.

Vital News had on Thursday, September 21, 2023 reported that the athletes were stranded in Lokoja due to non release of funds by the state government.

Onipe also failed to explain why the number of athletes earlier scheduled to represent the state at the games was reduced from 71 to 46.
