President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has appointed Adeboye Adeyinka, popularly known as Zulu, as the Senior Special Assistant on Grassroots Sports Development.
Adeyinka, a seasoned figure in sports administration, has previously collaborated with four Lagos State governors and served under the former Minister of Sports, Senator John Enoh.
His background positions him as a key player in advancing grassroots sports initiatives across the nation.
This new role aligns with the government’s aim to enhance the development of sports at the foundational level, ensuring a steady growth of talent for national and international competitions.
Adeyinka has already met with Mallam Shehu Dikko, the National Sports Commission (NSC) Chairman, to outline plans for strengthening talent discovery and nurturing programs.
