Not a lot of Nigerian cabinet members are personally active on social media.
Minister of youth and sports development, Sunday Dare, is one, regularly sharing updates from his daily activities and proving encouragement and inspiration to Nigeria’s sporting talents around the world.
It’s therefore great to see that the minister’s handle has been verified by Twitter. This should give the handle more mileage, especially in news coverage by local and foreign press, and help shine more light on the efforts of the President Muhammadu Buhari-led federal government through the Ministry to transform Nigeria’s youth and sports sector, as well as existing opportunities for her teeming youth.
