NFF Hails Musa Kida’s Appointment as Chairman of NNPCL

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has congratulated the President of Nigeria Basketball Federation, Engineer Ahmadu Musa Kida on his appointment as the non-executive Chairman of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL).

In a letter signed by the NFF General Secretary, Dr Mohammed Sanusi, the football-governing body said it was not surprised about Kida’s appointment by the President and Commander-In-Chief of the Armed Forces, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR, given Kida’s proven ability, capacity, demonstrated competence and sagacity in the nation’s oil sector over the decades.

“Your appointment is another testament that a goldfish has no hiding place. Your legacies as the most-impactful President of the Nigeria Basketball Federation (NBBF) ever, as a true leader of the oil sector in Nigeria and internationally, and as an administrator of the highest repute, have eventually found you out as deserving of a higher national assignment, and we heartily rejoice with you.

“The NFF has absolutely no doubt in your capacity to lead the new board to a level of enhanced operational efficiency, restoration of investor-confidence, local content-boosting, remarkable economic growth and the advancement of gas commercialisation and diversification, as envisioned by Mr. President,” Sanusi wrote.

The NFF commended Mr. President for the appointment, while praising Kida’s track record as an adroit manager of men and resources, a lover of excellence and an individual whose endless innovation and gravitas have seen to the remarkable growth of all establishments he has journeyed through on his way to the top.

Kida, a graduate of the Ahmadu Bello University, heads the newly-constituted 11-member NNPCL board, with Mr. Bashir Bayo Ojulari as the Group Chief Executive Officer.

NSC Applauds Tinubu for Signing National Anti-doping Bill into Law

Olawale Ajimotokanin Abuja

The National Sports Commission (NSC) has thanked President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for ratifying the Anti-doping bill into law.

NSC Chairman, Mallam Shehu Dikko said the move has reinforced President Tinubu’s intentional and deliberate resolve to ensure that the nation aligns with global anti-doping standards and overall sports development.

In a statement yesterday signed by the Director (Information and PR), NSC, Mrs Kehinde Ajayi, Dikko expressed gratitude to the President for mounting pressure for the bill to be concluded and brought to his table for assent.

“All our accomplishments within such a short time are down to the President’s support and encouragement. This is another clear manifestation of the presidential backing we are enjoying,” Dikko said.

He also thanked the Attorney-General of the Federation and Permanent Secretary Ministry of Justice, Chairman Senate Committee on Sports, Chairman House Committee on Sports, Clerk of the National Assembly and other administrative staff, and the WADA Africa CEO for the collaboration and support to get the National Anti-Doping Organization (NADO) Bill passed after close to two decades of back and forth before it was duly assented by the President.

The Act domesticates the International Convention Against Doping in Sport and establishes an independent body charged with the responsibility for the implementation of the World Anti-Doping Code and International Standards subscribed to by Nigeria.

Dikko also expressed delight that the Act also establishes the Nigeria Anti-doping Centre.

He said with this development, Nigeria will become an anti-doping hub on the continent and the world as a whole as envisioned in the RHINSE framework.

He added that the development aligns with Mr. President’s gracious approval in the 2025 Appropriations Act for the construction and equipping of a world class Anti-doping lab in Nigeria.

“There is only one of such laboratories in Africa and every country is expected to do at least 1,500 tests every year. Our samples are presently taken abroad just like other African countries but once the new lab comes on stream in a couple of years this would be a thing of the past and, in addition, this will be a huge revenue generator for the country. We can’t thank the President enough for this”, he added.

The Act is a marker to Nigeria’s determination to ensure fairness and integrity in global sports as it domesticates the UNESCO International Convention Against Doping in Sports.

It will also enable NADO to coordinate all anti-doping strategies in compliance with the provisions of the World Anti-Doping Code (WADC).

The Act will support the establishment and adequate funding of an accredited anti-doping control laboratory in the country and thus be a source of revenue and contribute to the sports economy.
