Ambode inaugurates upgraded Tafawa Balewa Square Cricket Oval in Lagos
Akinwumi Ambode, former governor of Lagos, yesterday, inaugurated the turf wicket of the Tafawa Balewa Square (TBS) Cricket Oval in the state.
The development comes about 18 months after the facility was shut to facilitate its upgrade from concrete bowling strips to grass.
Speaking at the event, Ambode said cricket is crucial to the socio-economic development of nations if its potentials are properly harnessed.
He added that the upgrade of the facility would further boost efforts to develop cricket in Nigeria.
“I think critical to success in any endeavor in life are the soft skills that cricket teaches and we are very happy at the recent uptick in cricket development in Nigeria,” he said.
“This turf wicket compliments all the efforts of the administration in growing the sport and I believe we would in no time feel its impact.”
