Akani noted that Season 1 of MTN Champs was first held in Benin, where raw talents were identified, some of whom were now on full athletic scholarships in the United States.

He expressed confidence that many of the emerging stars would go on to make Nigeria proud on local and international stages.

Also speaking, Osaze Ebueku, MTN’s Senior Manager of Sponsorship and Go-To-Market (GTM), reaffirmed the company’s commitment to identifying and refining young athletes, likening them to rough diamonds being polished into world champions.

He expressed excitement about returning to Benin to scout for more exceptional talents.

The Chairman, Edo Sports Commission, Amadin Enabulele, reiterated the current administration’s dedication to grassroots sports development.

Enabulele said Gov. Monday Okpebholo had approved the use of the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium and provided additional logistics to ensure a successful and impactful event in Edo State.
