But this talents are hidden and are yet to blossom because of lack of exposure to the global community. But going by this affiliation, we can now do the business of football and help this young lads reach their true potentials and also make money.
Thanks to Hon Ahize Nnamdi for seeing through this affiliation successfully I believe with this we will be ready for the next stage of sports development in this part of the state.
We can now participate in National and International competitions and also do business with foreign clubs. We need the exposure to grow and trust me when i say that we are ready for the world stage.
It is now Ozara youths to the world.” Ewurum concluded.
