Governor
Emmanuel Uduaghan of Delta State yesterday added another dimension to
the celebration of 2013 African Nations Cup heroes when he not only
appreciated Stephen Keshi with a plot of land but also said that the
state ould assist him to develop the property so that Keshi could find a
home in his home state. The plan is for Keshi to start identifying with
his home state in the area of sports development.
Delta held a reception for the Eagles
and this was part of the implementation of the sports summit the state
held in October last year. During the summit mentoring was highlighted
as one of the motivating factors for athletes. It was against this
background that Governor Uduaghan asked Keshi and all the sports heroes
from the state to mentor budding talents. Delta invited former
internationals like Godwin Etemike, George Ogawon, Ebuwon Didiere, Owolo
and Jossy Dombraye to the event at the Government House. This was after
the players rode through Asaba streets and were appreciated by the
people.
