Dr. Ademola further encouraged students to channel their energy into productive activities, emphasizing that these experiences can benefit both the individuals and the institution as a whole.

Omolola Emmanuel Oluwadamilare, the SCA Sports Director, expressed his satisfaction with the event's success, while also calling attention to the need for better sports facilities and improved officiating. 

"I am amazed by the level of participation and talent displayed across all sports. However, there is room for improvement in our sports facilities and officiating standards," he said.

"We need better officials and facilities to ensure a safer and more competitive environment for our athletes," he noted.
