In a significant move underscoring his commitment to sports development in Kwara State, Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq recently visited the Kwara Stadium Complex to assess the progress of the ongoing rehabilitation of the indoor sports hall. Accompanied by Mallam Bolakale Adisa Mogaji, the executive chairman of the Kwara State Sports Commission, the Governor took a tour of the facility to get firsthand insight into the project’s advancement.
The extensive rehabilitation, entrusted to Messr Disscom Ltd, marks the first major upgrade since the hall was last improved in 1991. This effort aligns with the Governor’s proactive agenda to rejuvenate the state’s sports infrastructure, creating a conducive environment for athletes and fostering community spirit through sports.

The indoor sports hall, once completed, will become another landmark achievement, serving various indoor sports and enhancing the state’s ability to host national and international competitions. The ongoing transformation reflects a broader vision to position Kwara State as a leader in sports development, nurturing young talent, and promoting local and regional sports tourism.
Governor AbdulRazaq’s commitment to sports revitalization has been met with praise from sports enthusiasts and stakeholders, who see these investments as crucial to building a vibrant, competitive sports culture in Kwara State.
