The Sports writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN) will during its diamond jubilee celebrations slated for October 29-31, 2025 bestow awards on some select sports writers retired and serving across the nation.
The prestigious event which will take place in Abuja will honour sports journalists who have in the line of duty exhibited professionalism, tenacity and commitments.
Chief Sunny Ogele is among the awardees for the celebration.
In a statement made available to CSUnews.ng, he has commended the national body of SWAN for the recognition it has prepared for him.
“For me, this is an honour that comes with a lot of joy and excitement for all that it stands for; having served the association meritoriously at various levels.
“Please join me in thanking and appreciating God Almighty for being the enabler and SWAN for considering me worthy to be deserving of such an honour,” he said.
Chief Sunny Ogele though retired from active service, still contributes to sports development in Abia State.
