Lagos State Football Roadmap Under Fuad is Sustainable - Abolore

An astute football administrator and seasoned Broadcaster, Abolore AbdulRahmon, has described the football roadmap under the Fuad Oki led LSFA Board as sustainable.

Abolore noted that the football ecosystem in the State must be standardized to meet international requirements which will in return have positive effects on Nigeria football as a whole.

"The LSFA Chairman, Ogboni Fuad Oki, introduced football club licensing for all football clubs in the State, as a measure to operate professionally in the State. Clubs in their hundreds have subscribed to this laudable initiative which was well commended by all football stakeholders in the State" he highlighted.


He further explained that "In the pursuit of an improvement in Coaching capabilities, the LSFA under Ogboni Fuad has partnered with Nigeria Institute for Sports (NIS) for subsidized Coaching Courses. This process is geared towards providing an enabling environment for Lagos State Football Coaches Association members."

Abolore reiterates the commitment of the LSFA Board under Ogboni Fuad to resusticate the State League as well as to make Divisional FA more formidable alongside other top competitions in the State like the Oba Cup, Ibile Cup amongst others.
