NIPOGA games and I
With more Polytechnics and Colleges of Technology than universities in Nigeria, NIPOGA Games are probably the biggest sports competition in the country. The Games started during my final year at The Polytechnic Ibadan in 1976. As the Director of Sports of the Student Union Government at the institution, I was a major driver of the establishment of the Games and the hosting of the very first event. I actually moved the motion for The Polytechnic Ibadan to host the first Games at a meeting in Benin a year before.
