Sports is life, and it deserves the spotlight in our media spaces.” He emphasized the critical role sports journalism plays in promoting national unity and development, urging media outlets to give sports the visibility it deserves in mainstream news coverage.


In a show of appreciation and encouragement, Olopade announced ₦2 million in incentives for the two participating teams and handed out dollar rewards to standout performers, including the best goalkeeper of the match.
