The federal government has inaugurated the new board members of the National Institute for Sports (NIS) with a view to providing effective governance and policy direction for the Institution in line with the enabling instrument that established it. 

The Honourable Minister of Sports and Youth Development, Mr. Sunday Dare, while inaugurating the board in his office in Abuja yesterday called on them to bring their wealth of experience to bear in ensuring the realisation of the mission and mandate of the institute. 

He added that with the recent approval of the National Sports Industry Policy, (NSIP), which provides for private sector participation in sports as a business and not mere recreation, the challenge of funding and other related issues concerning sporting activities in Nigeria, will soon be a thing of the past.
