The Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Mr Sunday Dare, has charged the universities in the country to retrace their steps back to the period when they usually produced sportsmen and women who later become great in one sporting activity or the other. The minister gave the charge on Friday in Lagos while officially lighting the Nigeria University Games Association (NUGA 2022) Torch at the University of Lagos, Akoka- the host university. Speaking further, the minister said Nigerian universities played a major role in the past in the production of footballers, athletes and other sportsmen and women who represented the country in major global competitions. In their separate remarks, the chairman of the governing council of UNILAG, Dr Lanre Tejuosho and the Vice-Chancellor, Prof Oluwatoyin Ogundipe, said the participating institutions should expect to experience the best NUGA games in history.
