Oyo State Government has reiterated its policy thrust to develop sports at the primary level, saying its pupils will soon dominate sporting events at the national level.

The Co-ordinating Director, Oyo State Universal Basic Education Board, Mr. Jacob Dairo made this known on Tuesday, during the distribution of sporting equipment donated by Oyo State Govenment, in collaboration with Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC) to 82 primary schools.

He said that the board is not only poised to restore the leading position by the state in primary sporting activities, but to take school sports to an enviable height in Nigeria.

He revealed that benefitting schools got sporting equipment such as handball goalposts and net, skipping ropes, table-tennis bats and nets, handballs, badminton rackets and other equipment distributed to schools in the three senatorial districts in the state.

Mr. Dairo said the board got delivery of sporting items courtesy of Governor Seyi Makinde and that the essence of the occasion was to officially flag-off the distribution of the items to the various beneficiary schools in the state.

He said the Oyo State Government intends to catch them young with the facilities, adding that the items will enable pupils to participate actively in sports.

Dairo said the Oyo State Government will organise a sporting competition among schools at local and zonal levels, while the overall winner will represent the state in national competitions.

Mr. Dairo charged the beneficiary schools to take care of the items delivered to them, urging them to make proper use of the equipment for the purpose for which it is meant.
