As Nigeria is bidding to host the FIFA under 20 Female World Cup, Governor of Edo State, Godwin Obaseki, has told FIFA that the state is ready as FIFA commences tour of facilities in Nigeria.

The governor noted that the remodeling work on Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium will soon be completed while work on other sporting facilities is progressing.

Obaseki said, “We are delighted at the endorsements of our facilities by the visiting FIFA delegation led by FIFA Consultant, Mainasarawa Illo. Edo State is the heartbeat of Nigeria, we made our mark in sports several decades ago and we are setting the stage to bring back those glorious years of leading in all sporting activities, with our huge investment in the sector. Edo is clearly the safest state in the South-south region, our people are very cosmopolitan with a rich and colourful culture. We have a functional airport, some of the best hotels in the country, reliable transport infrastructure that has Taxify and Uber leading the pack. So we have everything that will give our guests a memorable experience.”

The next edition of the FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup will be in 2020.
