This vision is about Building a Legacy of Champions in Africa,” said Mrs. Akpofure-Awobokun. “We are faced with our own choice today. The choice to support the vision of the Atlantic Hall Sports Complex or not. The choice to take the lead in the regeneration of the Nigerian educational sports sector or not.”
