The National Lottery Trust Fund (NLTF), says it will support the National Anti-Corruption Marathon and the National Youth and Students’ Summit on Anti-corruption.
NLTF Executive Secretary, Bello Maigari, pledged the support when he received Abimbola Yusuf, Chief Commissioner of the Public Complaints Commission (PCC) in his office in Abuja.

The summit will be held on October 1, as part of activities lined up for Nigeria’s 62nd independence anniversary.
Maigari noted that the support was in line with the cardinal objectives of the NLTF of promoting social cohesion and national development goals, including education, health and sports, among others.
‘’The National Lottery Trust Fund, between 2014 to date, has equipped over 2,500 public primary schools and organisations with key sporting equipment in nine different sports.
“As a result of the NLTF’s sports intervention, pupils across the country have now developed an interest and are fully participating in sports,” he said.
Earlier, Yusuf said he visited the agency for collaboration and support for PPC’s programmes.
”It is a fact that your good office passionately maintains zero tolerance to any form of corrupt tendencies and ill practices in our polity for many years,” Yusuf said.
