Speaking on behalf of ACE Sports, the official organizers of the Games, the Chief Operating Officer, Mr. Olayinka Olawole, explained that the decision became necessary to ensure better logistics and smooth participation of all registered agencies.

“The adjustment was made in consultation with all stakeholders to give participating teams ample time to complete their preparations and to enhance the overall quality of the Games,” Olawole stated.

Also speaking, the Chairman of the Osun State Sports Officers Association, Mr. Olufemi Bankefa, assured that the change in date would not affect the excitement and momentum already built around the Games.
