How Media Magnate Big ID
Redefined the Role of Media in Nigerian Sports
The Integrity Symposium 2024 may have concluded, but one name dominated the conversation: Idemudia Alapa
of DGR8Z CONCEPTS .
With an electrifying keynote speech titled “The Media and the Essentiality of Integrity to an Athlete’s Career,” BIG ID left no doubt that the future of Nigerian sports media management has a new face.
Standing before an audience of sports journalists, enthusiasts, and government officials—including Mallam Shehu Dikko, Chairman of the National Sports Commission—Alapa didn’t mince words.
"The media isn’t just a bystander in sports; we’re architects of legacies. Our pens, cameras, and microphones build champions or destroy dreams. We must wield this power responsibly, ensuring that integrity remains at the core of our stories."
The speech resonated with attendees, sparking conversations about the media’s role in safeguarding athletes' careers, holding the government accountable, and restoring trust in Nigerian sports governance.
