According to Enakhena, “We at NALCOMA believe that your experience as a sports administrator, a marketing expert and foremost international Match Commissioner will provide the much needed leverage for you to make the difference in this new assignment.
“As a notable sports personality, your new responsibility as the Chairman of the NSC will definitely present you with a new opportunity to once again build on the grounds already covered, as well as the opening of new grounds.
“On behalf of NALCOMA I warmly and heartily congratulate you on the well deserved consideration.
NALCOMA equally commended President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu for taking the bold step towards returning the lost glory of Nigeria among the comity of Nations as far as Sports sector is concerned.
