Abdulkareem who is the Vice-President of AFN also sponsors the Kwara State All Secondary Athletics Championships, an annual event. Ogba said, " we have corps of young talents that have the potential to become world beaters in the next two or three seasons, but there are still many others across the country, and it is only through competitions like that we can discover these hidden talents. I therefore urge my colleagues on the board, zonal representatives and stakeholders in track and field across the country to regularly organize talent hunts to discover new talents".
Ogba said that with the establishment of Athletics High Performance Center at the University of Port Harcourt,discovered athletes can be sent to the center so that they could have access to specialized training at a very early age and continue their education at the University which has facilities for all categories of students.
