Kogi State Government has announced new welfare packages in a bid to get the best from Confluence Queens in the new football season.
The State Commissioner for Youth and Sports, Honourable Monday Aridaojo Anyebe made the announcement when he interacted with the team on Monday before departing for their season opener against Abia Angels on Wednesday.
The Lokoja based club will get their season underway against the visitors from Umuahia at the Edo State University football pitch in Iyamho.
It will be recalled that Confluence Queens prosecuted their home games at the football pitch of Prince Abubakar Audu University Anyigba last season.
Confluence Queens will kick off their 2025/26 Nigeria Women Premier League (NWFL) campaign with a home fixture against Abia Angels.
They have now returned to Iyamho, following the league body’s decision to rule out Ayingba due to inadequate facilities.
Speaking on behalf of the team, the Team Manager, Mrs. Tosin Olorunleke Ojo, commended the State Government through Commissioner for it's commitment to the club’s wellbeing.
"I want to sincerely appreciate the Honourable Commissioner for Youth and Sports for all his efforts to ensure Confluence Queens are fully ready for the new season.
"He has been working tirelessly to keep the team happy, especially the players and coaches. He has also assured us of more goodies and packages that will motivate the team to make Kogi State proud as ambassadors in women’s football.”
Mrs. Ojo also praised the club’s chairman, Hon. Abdulmalik Isah (Dolly), for his unrelenting dedication to ensuring Confluence Queens enjoy a smooth and successful season.
