One, two, three, stand up…stand up… for the cham…pions  for the cham…pions stand up! Yes o, this is the best song for winners at the 2013 sports awards that took place yesterday.

Am sure that if you were given the platform to suggest who takes the award for excellence you would have chosen some other person but victor Moses, but ehmm! Victor Moses has been a good and experienced player, though he made some flops with goals in the last two matches of the Super eagles. Yessss! Up victor Moses, the big boss was not left out. Stephen Keshi, the big boss of the very organized Super eagles also won the best coach of the year award. Other winners are Perpetual Nkwocha who worn best female player of the year and Haruna Quadiri worn for ball sport personality of the year award, Blessing Akagbare won for best track and field star of the year while athlete, divine Oduduru won the discovery of the year award.

Guess what! The governor of Delta State, Gov. Emmanuel Uduaghan also had something to go with at the award ceremony; he won the best sports governor of the year award. Wow! The unique governor Emmanuel Uduaghan acknowledged in a speech at the hall, that the other governors who were nominated for the awards (Gov. Babatunde Raji Fashola, Gov. Liyel Imoke of cross rivers state) were also winners in the sports category. Read the excerpt below:

”I am aware that all the other governors are equally doing a lot in terms of grassroots development. The way we are going, Nigeria will win at least one gold medal at the next Olympics.”

He did not forget also to attribute John Mikel obi and Blessing Okagbare as winners. Hehe, no be small thing o.
