Speaking at the groundbreaking event graced by key stakeholders, including FIFA representatives, top government officials, and football legends, Majekodunmi emphasized that the project is a testament to Gusau’s visionary leadership and commitment to Nigerian football development.
“This is a landmark initiative that will significantly impact our football ecosystem. President Gusau has shown that he is not just a leader but a reformer who prioritizes the growth of the game.
This project will provide world-class facilities for our national teams and help reduce the financial burden of external camping,” Majekodunmi stated.

With the backing of key figures, including the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Tajudeen Abbas, and FIFA’s Gelson Fernandes, the initiative has been widely regarded as a major step forward for Nigerian football.
Majekodunmi urged continued support for the Gusau-led NFF, reaffirming his belief that under Gusau’s leadership, Nigerian football will witness sustained growth and excellence.
