Stephen Keshi Stadium

Stephen Keshi Stadium is a sports complex in Asaba featuring a central grass field surrounded by a running track and covered seating areas for about 22,000 spectators. The facility includes two indoor sports halls, a swimming pool, and additional training facilities for various sports.

The facility was originally known as Asaba Township Stadium and construction began in 2001. It was renamed in 2018 to honor former Nigerian football captain Stephen Keshi.

The stadium hosts local sporting events and draws fans who gather to cheer for their favorite teams. It serves as a meeting place where the community comes together to celebrate athletic achievements and support local athletes.

The stadium is accessible through major road connections throughout Delta State and offers plenty of covered seating for visitors. Those visiting should arrive early depending on the event to secure good viewing spots and comfortable seating.

During major flooding in 2012 and 2016, the stadium served as emergency shelter for residents affected by the floods. This unexpected role shows how the facility became important to the local community beyond sports.
