Diplomats, sports administrators and polo enthusiasts have commended MTN Nigeria for its long term commitment and sponsorship of Polo tournaments in Nigeria.

Among such distinguished personalities are former Nigerian Ambassador to Qatar, Sani Saulawa Bala, Nigerian polo ambassador and national team coach, Dawule Baba and the President of the Guards Polo Club, Senator Mohammed Kabiru Jibril. They were unequivocal in their commendations for MTN, describing the firm’s support for the game as a special one that has touched the lives of polo enthusiasts.

Ambassador Sani, who was a Special Guest of Honour at the Polo Tournament at the Guard Polo Ground in Abuja, singled out MTN as one of the few multinational firms in the country, whose investment in the game has led to the advancement of the sport in the country.

While describing MTN’s support for the competition as one that will promote positive lifestyles of millions of Nigerians, he challenged other organisations to support the growth and development of the game.

Speaking in the same vein, Alhaji Dawule Baba, the Nigerian Polo ambassador, also expressed satisfaction at MTN’s long term commitment towards the promotion of the noble game, which, according to him, has positively engaged the youth, while spreading the king of games across the country.
