Newly elected chairman of Delta FA, former Super Eagles captain, Austin Jay-Jay Okocha dropped the hint at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, Lagos, on his way to London for a capacity building programme, a package sponsored by Taleveras Foundation in partnership with the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF), to ensure that science is applied in football in the technical areas.
According to programme of event released by DFA Secretary, Mr. Friday Onothoja, yesterday, four venues, Jay-Jay Okocha Stadium Ogwashi-Uku, Otu-Jeremi, Oleh and Ughelli Township Stadium will hold matches during the competition.
Onothoja further revealed that this is the 16th year of Ecobank’s sponsorship of Delta FA Cup, a partnership he described as the longest, not only in Nigeria FA history, but also in Africa south of the Sahara.
He said: “Ecobank, no doubt, is a responsible financial institution that does not pay lip services to its corporate social responsibility. The youths and football loving Nigerians, especially those in Delta State, hold the bank in high esteem.”
