Abuja 2030: FG submits Bid To Host Commonwealth Games by Nemere2020(op): 9:01pm On Sep 24, 2025
The Abuja 2030 Commonwealth Centenary Games bid was presented to the Commonwealth Evaluation Team in London earlier today.

Today in London, Nigeria presents the case for Africa to host the Commonwealth Games for the very first time (Abuja 2030).

Nigeria has stepped forward on behalf of a whole continent, confident that the 2030 Centenary Games will mark a new chapter of inclusion, opportunity, and shared destiny.

We have offered not only Abuja, but Africa, as the stage on which the Commonwealth family can celebrate 100 years together and inspire the next century of excellence. The Government of Nigeria pledges its full support to host Games that will be truly unifying.

History is within our reach. The dream is alive. The time is now. Let us complete the circle of Commonwealth unity.


To the Commonwealth Family,

It is time for Africa. After 100 years of the Commonwealth Games, they have never been hosted on African soil. By bringing the Commonwealth Centenary Games to Nigeria in 2030, you will send a powerful message that every region of the Commonwealth matters, and that Africa is not only part of the story, but central to its future.

Nigeria is the gateway. Africa is the stage. The Commonwealth is the family. Let us make history together in 2030. Let us complete the circle of Commonwealth unity.

The dream must be realized. The time is now.

Bola Ahmed Tinubu
President
Federal Republic of Nigeria

Some will be here to criticise that it's a misplaced priority, but if we do not show interest at all and maybe Ghana did and won, then they are still the type to criticise and say whatever in their head grin

That's how the Commonwealth Games are?
It's about the city, moreover, hosting tournaments in different cities is serious logistics and money.

Games to hold in Sambisa or in Niger or Katsina States.

This bid substantiares the argument that the presidency is not aware of the realities on ground in Nigeria
