We in the NOC will continue to support Sports For All until it realises the objective for which it was set up," he added. Also speaking at the occasion, the President of Sport For All, Mrs. Ize Matabese, said she was very excited about the commissioning adding that, with this in place, it would be able to serve all Nigerians better. "Now with the secretariat in place, people can come in and get information about the activities of the body at leas,t at a designated point unlike when we operated under the tree," she explained. She thanked the executive of the NOC, who she explained were kind enough to give them the space and also coporate bodies such as CFAO, UAC and Total for their support. Matabese urged members of the board of Sports For All to come together and take active part towards moving the body forward. ADEOLU JOHNSON
