Pythagore Dumas, the Minister of Youth and Sports, traveled to Milot in the Northern Department, leading a delegation that included his Chief of Staff, Innocent Joseph, other cabinet members, and officials from the Directorate of Infrastructure and Equipment. The purpose of the visit was to inspect land that the Milot municipal government might make available to the Haitian State for the construction of a modern football stadium in the Far North region, a facility intended to meet the standards set by the Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football (CONCACAF) and FIFA.

To ensure the most strategic location was selected, the Milot Municipal Council, comprising Mayor Wesner Joseph and his deputies, Virmide Dolciné and Kengson Toussaint—guided the delegation to two potential sites, each spanning approximately 100,000 square meters (10 hectares). The first site is located at Carrefour des Pères, in the 3rd communal section of Génipailler, while the second is situated at Logadière, Bérard, in the 1st communal section of Les Perches-de-Bonnet.

Furthermore, a municipal decree issued on October 21, 2026, established a municipal committee to oversee the football stadium construction project in the commune of Milot. The issuance of this legal instrument underscores the commitment of public institutions to coordinate their efforts toward the realization of this project, which will benefit the people of Milot, the Greater North region, and the entire country.

This marks the second visit by the Ministry of Youth and Sports (MJSAC) to the Northern region as part of an initiative to rehabilitate sports infrastructure and construct a modern football stadium, in line with the vision of the Head of Government, Fils-Aimé. The Ministry therefore intends to continue this field work until the project is brought to fruition, convinced that sport serves as a catalyst for personal fulfillment, discipline, social cohesion, and socio-economic development.
