Senator Ademola Adeleke, the governor of Osun State has pledged his support for the Super Eagles’ Supporters’ Club while describing them as a permanent feature in Nigeria’s football firmament, a fully integrated part of the National team, the Super Eagles, providing the psychological edge needed to transform a good team to a winning one.

Governor Adeleke while congratulating the Chairman of the newly inaugurated chapter of the Super Eagles Supporters Club in Osun, Hon. Rufai Omotayo Bashiru said he is ready to support the activities of SESC stressing that without the Nigerian Football Supporters Club, perhaps, the Nigerian national teams wouldn’t have won some of the miraculous matches they did.

Speaking earlier, Okumagba commended Gov. Adeleke for his passion for the Super Eagles which he showed during the last AFCON hosted in Cote D’Ivoire when the world saw through a viral videos how he watched Super Eagles defeat South Africa during the semifinal match in his office and how he watched the AFCON final match with many football lovers in a public viewing centre that he introduced.

“I am glad to inform you that this is the first time that a Supporters’ club would be having its branch in Osun and it’s happening during his tenure. It is our desires to see Osun State hosting Super Eagles matches here in Osogbo during your tenure as we have seen your administration’s determination to drive sports development in the state through public-private partnerships,” said the SESC boss.
