S.O.B Agunbiade, Member of the Lagos House of Assembly, Ikorodu Constituency One has called on the State Administrators led by Governor Sanwo-Olu to construct a stadium in Ikorodu as they push for the development and growth of sports within the community.
Agunbiade said: The last administration led by Governor Ambode promised to build a stadium in Ikorodu, but since he could not come back for the second term, the pledge was not fulfilled.
“I have been pleading with the current state governor to construct a stadium in Ikorodu. There is a piece of land close to Lagos State Polytechnic waiting to be utilized for the purpose. If the Stadium is constructed, it will enhance sports development in the area, serve as a training ground for Polytechnic students and also host sports activities in the state,” he said.
He further said concerning the indefinite halt of sporting activities in Nigeria as he admits that it is important for sports to resume to create opportunities for athletes, who earn their living through it and to get back on track after months of absence in the sporting arena.
