LOC Must Provide Adequate Security, Transportation At Eko 2012, Says David

Worried over the state of security in the country in recent times, the Director of Sports in Benue State, Orngu David, has called on the Local Organizing Committee, L.O.C, of the National Sports Festival, N.S.F, to ensure the provision of adequate security during the games.

Speaking on the level of preparedness of the state ahead of the Games, David said though Lagos had been primed to host the most glamorous festival of all times, if not taken seriously, traits of insecurity could hamper the smooth progress of events when the hostilities gets underway.

 He advised the Local Organising Committee to provide adequate security and free flow of traffic throughout the duration of the festival.

 He said the state's athletes were training hard to win laurels in Lagos, adding that what would make the difference for the average athlete is when their efforts are rewarded with a prize.
