Project Manager Peculiar Ultimate Concerns Limited, Engr. Olalekan Adeleke says funds committed to the Osun School Sports Governors Cup programme will be for four years, as they also plan to accommodate other sports.
Speaking with the media as the maiden Osun School Sports Governors Cup enters its grand finale on Monday next week, Adeleke talked about his firm's vision for sports development in the state with a priority on grassroot.
"We have been involved in sports development for several years. As a company, we aim to touch the lives of our youths and scout raw talents at the grassroots level.
"This is why we are sponsoring the Osun School Sports Governors Cup. We are glad that the State Government has shown interest in sports, and we are collaborating with them by committing our funds to the event.
"Our sponsorship will run for four years, and the Osun School Sports Governors Cup will be an annual event.
"As the main actors of the tournament are secondary school students, we will consult with the Osun State Ministry of Education regarding the school calendar. We plan to stage the Osun School Sports Governors Cup during the second term of every session.

"In Season 2, we plan to add other sports such as athletics, basketball, tennis, volleyball, and table tennis to the event. Nigeria has enough talent in these other sports, and we can organize such events in Osun State.
"We have been highly impressed with the talents we have seen at the ongoing maiden Osun School Sports Governors Cup. We have seen quality football and good talents with bright futures. Our utmost desire is to see youths at the grassroots level develop to the top level of their careers.
"Finally, I appeal to corporate Nigeria to sponsor laudable programmes like this. The more we are, the merrier it is for the sports development of our youths."
