In a bid to enhance the financial inclusivity and support for athletes, the Lagos State Sports Commission (LSSC) has engaged in a strategic partnership with Parallex Bank to revolutionise payment solutions for athletes and foster talent development across the state.

According to him, the partnership is set to pave the way for a more efficient and transparent financial system within the sports sector, ensuring that athletes receive their payments promptly and through secure and efficient channels while also investing in the next generation of sports talent in Lagos.


Fatodu stated that the commercial bank shares a similar interest with the State’s agenda of bringing innovation to sports, with the broader goal of promoting the long-term success of athletes both on and off the field and improving the sporting ecosystem across the state.


“By introducing a streamlined payment system, we are not only improving the welfare of our athletes but also encouraging a culture of excellence within Lagos sports. Our athletes are our pride, and we are committed to ensuring they receive the support they deserve to excel”, the Director-General stated.


Similarly, the Managing Director and CEO of Parallex Bank, Mr. Olufemi Bakre remarked that the proposition by the Commission aligns with the institution’s mission to support initiatives that make a meaningful impact on society, particularly in empowering youth and fostering sustainable growth through sports development.

He said the strategic collaboration marks a major milestone in the bank’s commitment to creating value for every citizen, regardless of their status. Bakre averred that given the demographic that the Commission leads and interacts with, many of whom fall within the population our bank seeks to support with various financial interventions, supporting athletes and nurturing emerging talent is an investment we are fully committed to.
