Adeyanju met with Senator Suleiman Kawu Sumaila, Chairman of the Senate Committee on Sports, and Hon. Chief Canice Moore Chukwugozie Nwachukwu, House Committee Chairman on Inter-Governmental Affairs.
Both chairmen expressed their confidence in Adeyanju’s leadership and pledged their support for his revival plans.
Senator Sumaila described Adeyanju as “young and vibrant” who is capable of adding value to the NLTF. Hon. Nwachukwu expressed his confidence in Adeyanju’s leadership based on his first impression, emphasizing the need for synergy in moving NLTF forward.
He pledged to work together with Adeyanju towards achieving the Renewed Hope agenda and commended Adeyanju’s plans, saying they had earned his respect.
The lawmakers pledged to cooperate with the new Executive Secretary to achieve greater goals.
