Sports Ministry pays Team Nigeria's foreign camping allowance

Posted : 23 July 2024

With just three days left until the highly anticipated 2024 Olympic Games kick off in Paris, France, the Nigerian contingent is in high spirits following its foreign training tour in Germany and Spain, as well as the timely disbursement of foreign camping allowances.


John Owan Enoh, the Honourable Minister of Sports Development, stated that both domestic and foreign camping allowances have been disbursed to the athletes.


“Ensuring our athletes are well-prepared and motivated is a top priority. We are committed to providing all necessary support to help them excel on the global stage,” he said.


“Our athletes have shown incredible dedication and resilience, and we believe they are ready to make the nation proud.”


A total of 88 athletes will represent Nigeria in 12 different sports at the Olympic Games, which commence later this week.


This timely financial support underscores the Ministry’s dedication to fostering an environment where Nigerian athletes can focus on their preparations and deliver outstanding performances in Paris.


"The support from the Ministry has been phenomenal," said one of the athletes.


"Knowing that we have the backing of our nation gives us the confidence to push harder and aim higher."


The contingent held its foreign training program in Saarbrücken, Germany, while the football team camped in Spain.


The foreign training followed a period of domestic training camps, which prepared athletes for the games before the foreign camps further prepared them mentally, physically, and psychologically under conditions similar to those in Paris.


"The training in Germany and Spain has been intense and very beneficial," noted another athlete. "We are more than ready to compete and bring glory to Nigeria."


The Honourable Minister concluded, “Our athletes have the full support of the nation. We believe in their abilities and are confident they will give their best at the Games. Let’s all rally behind Team Nigeria and cheer them on to victory.”
