On Tuesday the Ikeja AllStars Football Club champions of the Betway 5s National football League paid a courtesy visit to the office of the All Progressives Congress National Women Leader (Southwest) Chief Mrs Kemi Nelson.
During the visit the captain of the side Chidi Nwankwo spoke on behalf of the team “Thank you so much ma for accepting to host us today despite the short notice. We want to use this opportunity to seek for your usual motherly support for the Ikeja darling team as we have severally reached finals of major tournaments but we were deprived the required victory due to some logistical issues. But we had to change the story last Saturday to ensure we bring home the Betway 5s National Football league to Ikeja”.
Chief Nelson in her response congratulated the team for their landmark victory and the captain of the side who also won the most valuable player award.
She also said that ” I want to thank the team for honouring me by bringing your trophy to me, thank you very much. I congratulate you all and I want to assure you that anytime you need me I will be there for you” the amiable APC chieftain concluded.
