In a bid to revitalize the state-owned football clubs, Gov. Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa has constituted the Ondo State Football Agency (ODSFA) Management Committee.
This is contained in a statement signed by Prince Ebenezer Adeniyan, the governor’s Chief Press Secretary, on Friday in Akure
The committee comprises individuals with diverse expertise in sports management and will operate directly under the Governor’s office.
The committee members include:
1. Divine Ogbonnaya – General Manager
2. Segun Joseph
3. Awosakin Iloyomade – Football Association Representative
4. Iyabo Ajanaku
5. Dapo Ajibade – Marketing Consultant
“The committee will manage the affairs of the Sunshine Stars Football Club, Sunshine Queens Football Club and Sunshine Stars Under-19.
“This development follows the Governor’s earlier promise to take necessary measures to ensure Sunshine Stars and Sunshine Queens’ swift return to the nation’s premier leagues,” the statement read.
Aiyedatiwa, however, tasked the new management committee to conduct a comprehensive review of the football clubs’ challenges and reverse their downward trajectory.
