President Muhammadu Buhari has warmly congratulated former Director General of the National Sports Commission (NSC), Al-Hassan Yakmut Saleh, on his 62nd birthday, May 5, 2023, rejoicing with the administrator, who has contributed immensely to the development of sports in Nigeria, starting out as a professional volleyball player.

 

President Buhari extolled Saleh for his passion and resilience in the growth of sports and the well-being of athletes, working over many years with four Ministers of Sports, with extensive knowledge in sports administration, which gracefully translated into gains when he served as the Director General of the NSC.

 

The President affirmed the historic roles of the administrator in national development, serving variously as Director/Secretary to Nigeria Security and Civil Defense Corps (NSCDC), Nigeria Correctional Services (NCS), and Nigeria Immigration Services (NIS) Board in the Ministry of Interior, Director Planning, Research and Statistics in the Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs and Director of Employee Relations and Welfare in the Office of the Head of Civil Service of the Federation. 

President Buhari prayed for the well-being of the sports administrator and his family.
