The management of the Ondo State Football Agency (ODSFA) has dismissed reports alleging that the agency is plotting against the leadership of the Ondo State Football Association (FA).
In a statement released by the agency, the allegation was described as false, unfair and condemnable, stressing that the agency’s primary objective remains the development of football in Ondo State rather than involvement in football politics.
According to the statement, the agency(ODSFA) was established to develop football in the state and has continued to engage experienced stakeholders and professionals including the revered Ondo FA to ensure a better and more successful football season ahead.
The management acknowledged that the football environment can be challenging and often comes with criticism, but maintained that ODSFA remained focused, proactive and non-partisan in the discharge of its responsibilities.
“We are not and will not be entangled in the web of politics. Our focus is to embrace ideas with humility and respect in order to execute the mandate given to us, which is the development of football in Ondo State,”
the statement noted.
ODSFA also assured football stakeholders in the state that concrete plans are already underway to restore the lost glory of football in Ondo State, while welcoming meaningful contributions and ideas that can help achieve the set goals ahead of the coming season.
Signed,
ODSFA Management.
