General Manager of Ekiti State Sports Council Adekunle Adeyemi will explain the poor kitting of the state’s athletes during the opening ceremony of the 7th National Youth Games in Asaba, Delta State on Saturday, the state government has said.

This comes after Ekiti State Governor, Biodun Oyebanji, on Sunday recalled Adeyemi from the ongoing Games in Asaba over the poor kitting of the state’s athletes.

Some of the Ekiti athletes were dressed in over-sized T-shirts, while some wore black pairs of shorts and pants. “Ekiti State Governor, Biodun Oyebanji, has recalled the general manager of the state sports council, Adekunle Adeyemi, from the ongoing 7th National Youth Games in Asaba, Delta State to account for the poor kitting of the state’s athletes at the opening session of the competition,” the statement read in part.

Also, the Ekiti State House of Assembly has summoned the officials in charge of sports in the state to appear before the House Committee on Youth and Sport at 2pm on Tuesday September 26.
