The Chief Executive Officer of Olympic Sports and Athletics Stores, Jude Ezealaji gave the commendation today at the Kwara State Stadium Complex, after reviewing activities of sports in the last three years under Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq.

 

According to Ezealaji, the state Governor has no doubt, added value to sports development, first with the appointment of the right people to manage the system in the state.

 

“Not only that the state government has done well with the introduction of Kwara State Sports Commission, but the Governor complemented that with the appointment of a professional, Mallam Bola Mogaji as the Executive Chairman of the Commission.

 

“Added to all these is the renovation, upgrading and building of new sports infrastructure in the state, all of which has raised the stakes in the growth of sports.

 

Ezealaji, whose Store, nicknamed “The New name in sports equipment” is selling varieties of sports kits and equipment at the Stadium, both wholesale and retail, also added that the drive has broadened sports participation in the state, with virtually all athletes from Sports Associations having the opportunity to fly the state’s flag in national competitions.

 

“The re-introduction of the State Sports Festival (KWASFES) has helped in galvanising participation from the grassroots, and as well, the support to the state to participate in the National Youth Games in Ilorin and the National Sports Festival in Edo has no doubt opened new developmental opportunities.

 

Ezealaji also commended the state government for it’s support to Kwara United FC, especially the recent donation of new bus to the team, which he said, is also now being managed by another professional, Kumbi Titiloye.

 

Ezealaji added that his outfit will continue to assist the sports development system in the state with the provision of the right kits and equipment.
