‘Transparent and bold reformer’, Rep Amadu felicitates Shehu Dikko at 55

Chairman of the House of Representatives Committee on Sports, Hon Kabiru Amadu, on Monday felicitated with the Chairman of the National Sports Commission (NSC), Malam Shehu Dikko, who turned 55 on Sunday.

In a statement issued on Monday, Amadu, member representing the Gusau/Tsafe Federal Constituency, praised Dikko’s leadership and dedication to the advancement of Nigerian sports, describing him as a “transparent and bold reformer.”

“On behalf of the House Committee on Sports, I congratulate Malam Shehu Dikko on the occasion of his 55th birthday.

“He has devoted much of his life to repositioning the sports sector and has made significant contributions to its development.”

Amadu highlighted Dikko’s efforts to confront longstanding structural challenges in the sector, noting his “honest and transparent leadership” and “sustained commitment to overcoming obstacles to growth.”

While Dikko opted for a modest, low-key celebration, Hon. Adamu expressed personal and institutional appreciation for his work, wishing him continued good health and success.

“I pray that you remain healthy and happy, and continue to work for the betterment of Nigerian sports.

“There is no doubt that the country will, in the coming years, begin to reap the benefits of your visionary leadership at the NSC,” Adamu noted.
