A Message of Unity & Hope

To the Athletes, Coaches, Parents, private sectors and Friends of the All-Federal Capital Territory Sports Association (AFSA). Today, we stand stronger than ever. With over 38 vibrant sports proudly affiliated to AFSA – from Archery to Esports, Football to Goalball, Taekwondo to Scrabble – and with the private sectors now walking hand-in-hand with us, a new dawn has come for grassroots sports in Abuja.

This union is not just about funding; it is about faith. Faith that every child in the Area council or across the nation deserves a chance to dream. Faith that a young girl in Para Athletics will lift more than weights – she will lift hopes. Faith that a boy kicking a ball in Dei-Dei today can wear the green-white-green tomorrow.

Together, we declare:
“No sport is too small. No talent is too far.” Private sector + AFSA + Our Many Sports = One Abuja, One Future. Let us build fields of play, not walls of exclusion. Let us light up every corner of the FCT with the joy of sport. Let every child hear the same cheer: “You belong here. You can rise here.” The journey of a thousand trophies begins with a single step on a community pitch. We are taking that step – together. Forward ever, grassroots never backward! With sport’s love and Abuja’s pride.

HRM Sir Eze Ifeanyi Eke.
President – AFSA
