Sports Writers Association of Nigeria, Delta State Chapter has welcomed journalists to the state with the big heart and as well advised against any form of negative reportage as the 7th National Youth Games commences Thursday, 21st September, 2023.

Chairman of the state Sports Writers Christian Association, Eze said it is a culture for some journalist to see only the negative side when reporting an event.

While admonishing them, he said such reporters may think their report will draw attention for a temporary and selfish benefit but their myopic reasoning will blindfold them to know that they are giving Nigeria as a country a negative image.

Also, Secretary, Delta State SWAN, Ogo Clarkson reminded all journalists that an event like this is a festival of getting to meet colleagues.

The CEO of Topsportsafrik reminded those who are sourcing for negative stories to know that the fact Delta state is a Big Heart that accommodates everyone especially with the access to the Chairman of Delta State Sports Commission, Tonobok Okowa, does not mean that they will encourage any form of distraction.
