The Undersecretary in the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology Michael Loupoke Lotiyam says the ministry had submitted a request to the Council of Ministers.
“We are hoping this week we will be able to get it,” Mr. Lopuke told Eye Radio.
Mr. Lopuke says preparations for the tournament have been completed.
He said the tournament will include sports competitions and cultural activities to be presented by students who represent their states.
