The national youth games that is billed to end tomorrow, the major upset is Lagos coasting home to victory with Delta state lagging behind in third position.

According to The Pond News, incompetent management, lack of proper planning and preparation are the fertile ground for this disgrace to Delta State.

This is the first time the Delta Sports Commission under the leadership of Mr Onoriode Oborevwori is hosting a major sports competition.

The Pond News reports that Lagos state is in the first position with 38 gold, 18 silver and 16 bronze medals.

Edo state is in second position with 27 gold, 11 silver and 16 bronze medals.

Delta state, the defending champion is pushed to the third position with 23 gold, 27 silver and 27 bronze medals.

With this crushing and humiliating defeat, the chances of Delta state hosting next year games becomes doubtful.

The National Sports Commission promised at the beginning of the sports meet that next year host shall be announced tomorrow.

Media speculations point to the direction of Lagos state getting the hosting rights.
