During the meeting, Mrs. Badejor, the Chairman of the 2024 NBA AGC, announced that this year’s sports competition will be conducted on a regional basis, with only the finals taking place during the conference itself. She also highlighted the need to review the budget, considering the current 30% inflation rate, which could impact the quality of conference materials, particularly the conference bags.
Badejor presented the proposed conference rates to the NEC, urging them to consider the three schedules presented at the previous NEC meeting in Jos. The revised conference fees were approved as follows:
