Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu has assured the safety of participants and visitors coming to the State for the Under-20 Women World Cup in 2020.
The State, the Governor guaranteed, will ensure improvement in the condition of all sporting facilities already inspected by the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) committee to give participants comfort and make their experience rewarding.
Sanwo-Olu, on Tuesday, received members of the apex football governing body to his office after Lagos was named as a potential host city for the competition. The FIFA officials were led by the president of Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Mr. Amaju Pinnick.
The Governor said he was elated by the choice of Lagos as a potential host city of the sporting fiesta – a development that followed the FIFA’s inspection of sporting facilities in the State.
