One of the resource persons to the NNL pre-season seminar, John Joshua Akanji, said that the seminar will adequately equip the participants ahead of the 2024/25 season.
It is less than one week to the NNL pre-season seminar aimed at equipping the second-tier league coaches and media officers on handling issues related to the league,
Akanji, a veteran journalist and former media aide to former sports minister, Sunday Dare will be among the senior journalists who will guide the media officers at the seminar starting on Monday, October, 28 at the Remo Stars Complex, Ikenne, Ogun State.
Akanji believes that the successes recorded in the league last season could be attributed to the seminar held at the same venue noting that all the national leagues need such seminars to upscale the knowledge of the coaches and team media officers.
He said, “I want to commend the NNL board under the Chairmanship of Mr. George Aluo for their initiative in introducing the seminar.
“The maiden edition was a very huge success which contributed to the seamless league they had last season and I believe that this year’s edition will even be more successful because of the calibre of resource persons that will handle the seminar.”
He is delighted that the league board went beyond limiting the seminar to the coaches since he believes media officers are critical stakeholders because the reports they send out can either positively or negatively affect the league.
