NSF 2025: Top Nigerian music icons, Davido, Asa, to perform at opening ceremony

Posted : 18 May 2025

Organisers of the 22nd National Sports Festival, tagged Gateway Games 2024, have announced that two of Nigeria's finest music superstars, Davido and Asa, will perform live at the highly anticipated opening ceremony of the Games at the MKO Sports Arena.


After months of top-level preparations and planning, the opening ceremony of the Sports Festival will take place today, Sunday the 18th, at the MKO Stadium in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital, starting at 5 pm.


As part of activities to ensure the 2024 Gateway Games is one of the best-organised festivals, world-class performances and cultural displays have been lined up to light up the Games.


Director General of the National Sports Commission (NSC), Hon. Bukola Olopade, who also serves as the Chairman of the Main Organising Committee of the Games, said the stage is set for what is expected to be the best-organised opening ceremony in the history of the Festival.


“This is our own Olympics, and from start to finish, the festival must portray that global feel, both in competition and organisation.


“This is why the National Sports Commission and the Ogun State Government have put together a world-class event to mark the opening ceremony today.


“I have spent the last two years saying Ogun State will host the best Festival, but doubters never believed.


“Beyond the aesthetics you are seeing here today, which confirms to everyone what I have been saying, from the opening ceremony to the Games proper, you will be witnessing the best.


“Also, beyond that, this is the first NSF ever where the first two days will be free from rancour related to hostel and feeding. So, I am very excited about everything and what is coming up later today at the opening ceremony.


“I might not reveal everything, but I can tell you that Asa will be starting it, and Davido will be closing it.


“However, I will not disclose what will be in between. Nigerians should just stay glued to their televisions because they are about to witness an opening ceremony like never before,” he concluded.
