‘Gov Alia Taking Benue Sports to Greater Heights with World-class Infrastructures’

Benue State Governor, Rev. Fr. Hyacinth Iornem Alia of Benue State has demonstrated a strong commitment to elevating the state’s sports infrastructure, and a major step in this vision is the award of a contract to Monimichelle Limited, a leading sports facility development company in the country.

This project aims to transform Benue’s primary stadium in Makurdi into a world-class facility that will not only serve as a hub for sports but also boost the state’s reputation at the national and international stages.

The Governor’s decision underscores his dedication to fostering youth development, creating employment opportunities and positioning Benue as a leader in sports excellence. 

By partnering Monimichelle, known for delivering top-tier sports infrastructure, the state ensures that the stadium will meet global standards, comparable to some of the best facilities around.

Speaking about the project at the weekend, CEO of Monimichele Limited, Ebi Egbe, said that the project “aligns with the governor’s administration’s broader vision to promote economic growth through sports tourism and empower local talent with top-notch training facilities.”

He stressed that the governor reiterates that any opposition to the project 

tantamount to standing against the development of Benue State sports. 

“The Governor was emphatic that the project was not about him. He describes it as about the people of Benue State and the future of its youth. 

He told them that anyone who distracts from or opposes this vision was against the progress and prosperity of the state.

As construction progresses under Monimichelle’s expertise, expectations are high for the unveiling of a facility that will stand as a beacon of hope and development for the state. 

“Governor Alia’s administration remains steadfast, assuring citizens that distractions will not derail the goal of delivering a world-class stadium that all Benue indigenes will be proud of,” concludes the Monimichele chief executive
