“Our collective vision is to see our football flourish and we are fully committed to working hand in hand with the Federation to make that vision a reality. It is important to explore how we can collaborate and leverage on our respective strengths to advance sports development in the state”, he said.
Earlier, Majekodunmi said a symbiotic relationship must exist between government and other sponsors to leverage the sport, stressing the need to resuscitate school sports like the Governor’s Cup, Oba’s Cup, among others, which had been the bedrock of a solid sports structure.
