Sports enthusiast, Soname splashes N25M on Team Nigeria Paralympics

Posted : 30 July 2024

The Chairman of Remo Stars Football Club, Kunle Soname, has announced a donation of ₦25 million to the Paralympics Committee Nigeria (PCN).


The President of PCN, Sunday Odebode, made the announcement in Lagos, stating that the financial support is intended to prepare the athletes for the upcoming Paralympics, which will be held in Paris.


Team Nigeria will participate in four events at the games, which will run from August 28 to September 10 in Paris.


According to Odebode, the events include para table tennis, badminton, para athletics, and para powerlifting.


The PCN President further mentioned that Soname, the CEO of ValueJet, made the donation during his investiture as the patron of the committee.


“The funds are intended to support and prepare the athletes for the games,” he said. “We will continue to support our special athletes to ensure they excel in their respective events, and I am optimistic that their participation in Paris 2024 will be successful.”


Soname expressed his appreciation to the leadership of PCN for appointing him as Patron and promised to always be available whenever his assistance is required.


Odebode clarified that Soname’s appointment was well-deserved, as he has consistently supported special athletes even before becoming the patron. He urged Soname to continue his efforts.


“We at PCN believe that Soname is a fitting Patron, which is why the board unanimously agreed on this decision. We hope to have a smoother and better relationship with him moving forward. I can also assure you that our athletes will not disappoint at the Paris Paralympics,” he added.
