The chairman disclosed that the plan was to stage a world-class ceremony that all participants and lovers of sports worldwide would enjoy.

“We started preparation for the closing ceremony just same time with the opening and we are happy the opening was a huge success.

“The closing is more significant to us because we want people to go back to their respective states with good memories of the closing ceremony,” Ukah said.

We have schoolchildren preparing for another round of amazing calisthenics display, just as they did at the opening, while some notable artistes will also perform to thrill the audience.”

At the opening ceremony, music stars Ruger, Bella Shmurda and Harrysong entertained the crowd at the packed Stephen Keshi Stadium.

On Saturday, it will be the turn of Zoro, Erigga and Zlatan to thrill the audience at the same sporting arena in Asaba.

“We are very proud that the Games are going on well; our target is to end it well with the closing ceremony. So, much work has been put in for this event to run smoothly and we intend to put the icing on the cake on Saturday with the closing display,” Ukah added.
