According to his Senior Special Assistant on Media, Mr Doubara Atasi, the deputy governor emphasised that going forward, the government would only grant approval to schools that had a space for outdoor sports events.
Senator Ewhrudjakpo noted that the measure would go a long way to assist the state in developing young malleable talents, especially at the secondary school level.
