The Office of the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Grassroots Sports has partnered with the Sports Africa Investment Summit (SAIS2025) to drive mass participation in grassroots sports. Prince Anthony Adeyinka Adeboye, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Grassroots Sports, will join a panel discussion on "Developing a Sustainable and Inclusive Sport Sector" at SAIS2025.

This partnership highlights the importance of grassroots sports to the government, which remains committed to policies that expand access, promote participation, and harness sports' transformative power. Prince Adeboye emphasized that investing in inclusive and accessible facilities is crucial for fostering talent, strengthening communities, and fueling the economic potential of sports.

The event will focus on strategic investments in sports infrastructure, including the Spaces 4 Sports initiative, which aims to increase access to quality sporting facilities.
