Speaking during an interview with the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN), Kwara State Chapter, held at the Taiwo Awoniyi Sports Media Center in Ilorin on Tuesday, Orbih praised the project, highlighting its potential to enhance the country's sporting infrastructure and bolster badminton's growth nationwide.
““The ongoing indoor sports hall is shaping up to be one of the best in Nigeria. It is a facility that will support the development of various sports and provide athletes with the kind of world-class environment they need to excel,” Orbih said.
The federation president also expressed his excitement over the proposed badminton hall, a project that has been championed by Governor AbdulRazaq.
According to Orbih, the establishment of the badminton hall will transform Kwara State into the “Mecca of Badminton” in Nigeria, attracting athletes, enthusiasts, and international tournaments to the state.
“The Governor's commitment to badminton is commendable, and the proposed badminton hall will be a game-changer for the sport. It will not only improve the sport's visibility but will also provide a hub for training, competitions, and talent discovery,” Orbih added.
