According to Mr Nwoko, the institution has opened its doors to all without discrimination in line with its commitment to equal opportunity.

“The university is built on six principles of Equity, Justice, fairness, hard work, dedication, and commitment as a catalyst for self-improvement of its students and national development,” stated Mr Nwoko.

Mr Nwoko added that the vision behind establishing the university was to develop an institution that produces international sports professionals.

“Sportsmen and women who could compete at the Olympics and other world fora with exceptional results and focus on teaching, research and community development,” Mr Nwoko explained.

He also mentioned the university currently has more than 40 approved courses, 10 global partners and more than 22 students’ nationals.

“The university will also serve to promote sports and sports education to ensure the development of sports professionals of international standards,” said Mr Nwoko.

Mr Nwoko said the institution would continually help educate and prepare the next generation of sports industry professionals and offer additional training.

He said it was committed to finding creative ways to use sports and athletes to inspire positive social change.
