As the 2025 Ogun State FA Cup begins on Wednesday, Chairman of the Ogun State Football Association and NFF Executive Board Member, Alhaji Ganiyu Majekodunmi, has reminded teams of the tournament’s unpredictable nature.
Speaking ahead of the first-round fixtures at the Dipo Dina Stadium, Ijebu Ode, Majekodunmi urged teams to be fully prepared, emphasizing that upsets are a hallmark of the competition.

He cautioned against complacency, stressing that every match should be treated like a final. He also encouraged teams to uphold the values of fair play, discipline, and sportsmanship to ensure a successful and memorable tournament.
