Alhaji Rabiu after a tour of the facilities of the centre, said he was impressed with the arrays of equipment installed, pledging support to the provision of up-to-date machines in the Laboratory situated at the Centre.
The lab caught my interest and the netball game is also second to none. I know about basketball but netball is new. It’s not her mission, it’s everybody’s mission to develop talents in our girls. So I’m indebted to her to render any assistance she requires”
“I know her capacity and what she can do, she doesn’t do things on local level but internationally. I know this is going to be a big stuff when it manifests. Government has not recognised her for what she’s doing. She deserves more recognition and support from government.”
I know her very well, she’s been spending her personal funds on sports development in the grassroots especially in Oyo State.”
Speaking, the Chief Executive Officer, Kayrom Lee Gym and Fitness Centre, Ambassador Romoke Ayinde expressed happiness at the gesture, saying her labour in sports and vocational development in Oyo state are beginning to yield fruit.
Ambassador Ayinde who’s the Chairperson, Netball Association Oyo State had last month, inaugurated the netball game for females in the state with the vision to discover talents and groom them for international exposure.
Ambassador Ayinde explained that Netball was a veritable tool to engage the girl child in order to dissuade them from falling prey of social vices which may cut short their destinies.
By the time we engage the ladies and girls, I know they have a lot on their mind, playing netball will rehabilitate them and give them a new focus of life”
