]]> The National Sports Festival will hold between February 14 and 28, 2021, the National Council on Sports has announced.

The decision was taken on Tuesday at an extra ordinary council on sports virtual meeting.

Justifying the reasons behind the postponement from the initial date of December 3 to Dec-18th, Dare said there was need for better precautionary measures against COVID-19, bearing in mind the expected influx of holiday makers during the festive period, as agreed between the Ministry, the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 and the host state.

Recall that the National Sports Festival tagged ‘EDO 2020’ was originally slated to hold early this year but for the outbreak of the COVID-19 which necessitated the postponement and  suspension of all sporting activities to guard against the spread of the corona virus  nationwide.
