Nigeria Olympian Association to Host National Convention in Abuja

Posted : 23 June 2025

The Nigeria Olympian Association (NOA) has announced plans to host its National Summit from July 22 to 24 at Zeus Paradise Hotel, Mabushi, Abuja.

The three-day gathering is designed as a strategic platform for former and current Olympians to engage in meaningful dialogue on the future of sports development in Nigeria.

“This meeting aims to promote collaboration, share experiences, and propose solutions to the challenges facing athletes in Nigeria,” the association stated.

According to NOA President and former basketball international Olumide Oyedeji, the summit will include a general congress on July 23, in line with the association’s constitution. During this session, key resolutions will be adopted to guide the organization’s operations.

As part of the event’s highlights, a Dinner and Awards Night will be held on July 24, themed “The Labours of Our Heroes Past.” The evening will honor distinguished Olympians and their families, offering a moment to celebrate their achievements while addressing issues related to their welfare and ongoing recognition.

In addition, the association will recognize sports administrators who have contributed to the promotion of Olympic values, youth empowerment, and sports development in Nigeria.

Some past honorees include Sunday Dare, former Minister of Youth and Sports; Abu Gumel, President of the Nigeria Olympic Committee; and Philip Shaibu, former Deputy Governor of Edo State and current Director General of the National Institute for Sports.

To round off the summit, the association will embark on a humanitarian outreach, visiting selected orphanages in Abuja as a show of support and commitment to giving back to the community.
