  "summary": "The Fédération Équestre Internationale (FEI) will conduct a four-day inspection of Nigeria's equestrian facilities from September 28 to October 1, following the recent recognition of the Nigeria Equestrian Federation (NEF) as an Olympic sport federation by the Nigeria Olympic Committee. The inspection, which will cover equestrian facilities in both Abuja and Lagos, is crucial for NEF's ongoing affiliation process with the world governing body. The FEI's visit aims to strengthen NEF's position within Nigeria's sporting structure and facilitate the federation's engagement with national sports institutions and international sporting bodies.",
