The National Sports Commission (NSC), has announced the opening of media accreditations for the coverage of the 22nd National Sports Festival (NSF), tagged Gateway Games, taking place from May 16th – 30th, 2025 in Abeokuta, Ogun State.
NSC’s Director of Information, Kehinde Ajayi, disclosed this in a statement on Saturday in Abuja. She advised interested media practitioners outside Ogun to send in their full names, medium, telephone number, email address and a passport photograph to ‘Gatewaygames2024media@gmail.com’.
She said that host journalists in Ogun State have a separate accreditation process which has been duly communicated.
“The Media Accreditation for the Gateway Games has officially opened from Saturday April 12th and will officially close on April 19th,” she said.
“While the National Sports Commission through the Media sub committee for the Games will love to accommodate every applicant for Accreditation.”
“It is however very important to inform all intending applicants that registration for Accreditation does not automatically guarantee approval of such Application,” she said.
As preparations intensify for the games, the NSC on Thursday inaugurated 19 sub-committees to ensure the successful hosting of the event.
The National Sports Festival, which is a celebration of Nigeria’s rich sports and cultural heritage, is expected to host about 15, 000 athletes and officials in 33 sporting events.
