The National Sports Commission (NSC) appoints Lekan Fatodu as the president of the Nigeria Aquatics Federation, according to reports from Premium Times and The Punch. The Punch describes Fatodu as the director-general of the Lagos State Sports Commission. Premium Times adds that the appointment is approved by NSC leadership and takes effect at a “critical period” for aquatic sports in Nigeria. Both outlets frame the appointment as part of an effort to reposition and strengthen aquatic sports administration in the country. In their reporting, there is no mention of an acting arrangement or a specific term length for the new role. The announcements indicate that Fatodu will lead the federation’s activities following the NSC decision, with expectations that the federation will refocus on improving aquatic sports performance and organization. Neither source provides further details on immediate policy changes or timelines beyond the appointment itself.
