Posted : 13 May 2023
The immediate past president of the Nigeria Referees Association, Otunba Tade Azeez, has vowed to make the Lagos State Football Association bigger and better when he becomes the chairman of the FA. Azeez, who served as the Lagos FA Vice Chairman to the former Chairman, Barrister Seyi Akinwunmi, for eight years, noted that he had mapped out his plans to lead a progressive tenure at the helms of affairs at the Lagos FA.
"Over the years, we have developed a template to lead the Lagos FA to greater heights and are poised to make the Football Association the best in the country in terms of development."
Otunba Tade Azeez noted that he enjoyed a harmonious and cordial relationship with the former chairman, Akinwunmi, and he is set to continue from where the former First Vice President of the Nigeria Football Federation stopped on the efficient running of the football association in Lagos.
"The long-term progressive template of the Lagos FA, which has made football administration in Lagos the best in Nigeria, will be continued and even taken to another level."
"For effective and efficient football administration, I have been tested and trusted, and it is time to become the substantive Lagos FA Chairman."
"The experience as a former President of the Nigeria Referees Association will help me tremendously to run a fantastic football administration in Lagos known as the Centre of Excellence."
For the Lagos State Football Association elections, two candidates will be screened for the chairmanship position, two for the vice chairmanship position, 14 for board membership, and two reserved for women.
The exercise is scheduled to take place on May 15, 2023. The screening exercise, according to the Secretary of the Lagos FA Electoral Committee, Akeem Okikiopkosu, will start at 9 a.m. at the Lagos FA Secretariat on 149, Ogunlana Drive, Surulere.
The Lagos FA main elections will be held on May 24th at a yet-to-be-decided venue in Lagos State.
