The day, which is being organized by the Nigeria Olympic Committee (NOC) in collaboration with the Nigeria Sport For All Commission, is an annual event that takes place all over the world and it gives the populace the ability to experience some of the magic of the Olympic Games in their own communities.

Also, this event is a platform that allows people to learn about Olympic values and to put them into practice in their everyday life. All participating states are expected to feature in jogging, aerobics, cultural displays and demonstration of other sports to commemorate the event because engaging in physical exercises promotes a healthy and mutual living.

He said that under the auspices of the association for International Sport For All (TASIFA), the Sport For All Commission will take part in TASIFA World Games scheduled to take place in Portugal next year. The event will be a vibrant and entertaining experience, offering a unique opportunity to discover the varieties and values of Sports For All including traditional games and popular sports of cultures from around the world.
