A 13-member Local Organising Committee ( LOC) for the 2020 Delta State School Sports Festival was inaugurated by the state Commissioner for Basic and Secondary Education, Chief Patrick Ukah, on Monday inside the conference hall of the ministry in Asaba.

Chief Ukah stated that the Delta School Sports Festival was different from the state sports festival as the former is meant to discover talents at the school level that can be further nurtured by the latter.

He warned that mercenaries will not be allowed to participate in the competition, adding that it is strictly for students just as he said that accommodation have been secured for the students to camp.

Chief Ukah noted that the joy of participating in the Delta School Sports Festival is when the names of schools are mentioned during the event, and called on members of the LOC to avoid using just zones to introduce students.
