The Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Mr. Sunday Dare, has reiterated his commitment to grassroots development as he said more attention would be paid to sports at that level.

While speaking at grand finale of the Kwara State Sports Festival in Ilorin, the minister also urged state governors to show more commitment to grassroots sports development.

He said "This is where we want to be when it comes to sports development and by that, I mean the promotion of grassroots sports development. We want to see the commitment of State Governors to grassroots sports development.

"15 years after the last Sports Festival was held, we are having this, so there is a renaissance taking place and I am always very glad when I see the youth involved in sporting activities.

"We are looking for young talents that we can nurture in athletics, weight lifting, boxing and I am really glad to be here."

The Kwara State Sports Festival was held at the Kwara Sports complex with the Minister as special guest. The Governor of the State, Abdulrazaq Abdulrahman resuscitated the sports festival 15 years after the last edition was held.
