A new era has begun at the prestigious Guards Polo Club, Abuja, following the election of Mustapha Junaid as president.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Junaid emerged president of the club on April 6, after previously serving as first vice president.

An active polo player and administrator, Junaid pledged to reposition the club and further strengthen its reputation as one of Nigeria’s leading polo destinations.

“We are committed to building on the club’s rich heritage and taking Guards Polo Club to greater heights,” he said.

According to him, the club boasts world-class polo facilities capable of competing with top polo destinations around the world.

“Our facilities remain among the best globally and continue to attract top players and distinguished guests from within and outside Nigeria,” he added.

Junaid also noted that the club’s serene ambience and lush green polo fields would continue to receive proper maintenance and upgrades.

He disclosed that several programmes and initiatives had been designed to enhance members’ experience and promote the growth of polo nationwide.

“We are putting strategic plans in place to ensure that polo enthusiasts remain actively engaged throughout the year,” he said.

The president announced that the club would host the 2026 Abuja National Carnival Polo Tournament in December.

He described the tournament as the club’s flagship annual equestrian event, traditionally held over two weeks and featuring top Nigerian teams. (NAN)
