The organiser,  Ayeni added that there would be cycling, draft, marathon, 100m races, table tennis, snooker, volleyball, video games and so many other games totalling 16.

In his words, “The overall objective is youth development, we understand that the youths have so much energy and if we do not generate the energy to sports it goes to the negative. we are using sports to enhance this, bringing sportsmanship spirit which would lead to communal unity.”
