36 Lion Will Give Kwara Utd Run For Their Money – Gafar

November 18, 2022

Edo State Governor, Senator Monday Okpebholo, has called on Nigerians to embrace active lifestyles, community engagement, and the unifying power of sports, describing them as critical drivers of national health, peace, and cohesion. Governor Okpebholo made the call on Saturday through his Deputy, Rt. Hon. Dennis Idahosa, during the flag-off of the 2025 Olympic Day Celebration at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium in Benin City. This year’s theme, “Let’s Move Together for Health and Active Community,” marked the annual global commemoration of the birth of the modern Olympic movement, inspired by Pierre de Coubertin. While traditionally observed on June 23 globally, Nigeria marked it on June 28. Representing the Governor, Deputy Governor Idahosa described the Olympic Day as a reminder of the transformative power of sports, urging citizens to prioritize physical activity and social inclusion. “Olympic Day serves as an ideal occasion to move. Sport fortifies both our mind and body, promotes well-being, and inspires us to dream. It ignites joy and fosters unity,” Idahosa stated. He emphasized that beyond physical fitness, sports foster social bonds and a collective sense of purpose, transcending cultural, social, and political divides. “This day is more than a celebration, it is a movement. It reminds us that no matter our background or pace, we belong to one global sporting family,” he added. Also speaking, the Executive Chairman of the Edo State Sports Commission, Hon. Amadin Desmond Enabulele, reiterated the inclusive spirit of the Olympic Day, stressing that it was less about competition and more about participation, unity, and shared values. “This run is not about who finishes first, but about showing up, staying active, and embracing togetherness, equality, and resilience,” Enabulele noted. He commended sponsors, volunteers, and participants, describing their enthusiasm as a strong endorsement of the ideals of health, peace, and sportsmanship. The event featured over 300 athletes budding and elite including notable figures like Nigerian swimmer Rachael Tonjor, who competed at the 2016 Rio Olympics, and 1972 Olympic boxing bronze medalist Isaac Ikhuoria. The early morning fitness run kicked off from the Main Bowl of the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium at about 8:00 AM, moving through Ekehuan Road, Oba Ovonramwen Square, Plymouth Road, Akenzua Street, and back to the stadium. Residents and motorists lined the designated routes, cheering as participants including Edo State Sports Commission cyclists performing choreographed displays jogged past. The celebration climaxed with the presentation of certificates of participation to the Deputy Governor and other participants, reinforcing the day’s inclusive, festive, and symbolic spirit.

President 36 Lion Football Club, Alhaji Gafar Liameed, says Kwara United must work hard to get a result from his rookies in Sunday’s make or burst Group B game in the 8th edition of the Ogunjobi Gold Cup.
Kwara United who lost to Remo Stars on Friday must beat 36 Lion to stand a chance of qualifying to the semi-final as they have 3points from two matches while the rookie side is yet to score a goal let alone record a point.
“We had hoped to win the Ogunjobi Gold Cup but now that we’ve lost two games, there’s no realistic chance for us getting to the semi-finals.
“However, we’ll prepare well for the Kwara United game on Sunday and off course gives them a good run for their money.”
“Our scouting program is the best in Nigeria as we have coaches in all states in Nigeria. That’s why we have a Gambo, Chibueike, Mayowa in our team. We are Lion and also Mr. Nigeria.
“Once we scout a good player, he definitely will be moved to Lagos likewise his studies, for us education is key. If he’s also between the age of 14 and 16, his parents consent all that we need to get things going for him.
“If 36 Lion was playing in the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL), surely these set of rookies will be the ones playing. We are not after wins but the experience.
“The average age of the team is between 15 and 17, so we encourage them to bring out their best as they could compete with men.
“They can see the likes Bukayo Saka (Arsenal) or Ansu Fati (Barcelona) on television showing their football skills, they too can do it.”
