Akinwande made this known while reacting to the poor state of sporting activities in the state.
He noted that the state has many talented youths who are desirous of have 
their skills sharpened through competitions and practising with standard 
facilities but were not encouraged to do so, due to the policies of the 
state government and poor social responsibility.

He queried why youths should be asked to pay money before using public 
facilities and the roles of government in sports development when non for 
profit foundations are also discouraged from helping the youth to remould 
themselves.
