Mr. Ado specifically paid glowing tribute to His Imperial Majesty, Oba Olaoye Afolabi Ghandi, Orumogege III, for his royal backing, moral support and consistent encouragement, which he noted gave the tournament cultural pride and community acceptance facilitated by Reverend Peter Olaleye.
The tournament chairman also acknowledged the contributions of the Chairman of Cradle Carnival, former House of Rep. member Olusegun Odebunmi “Bunvic”, and the Secretary of Cradle Carnival, Mr. Muyiwa Oke, for their organisational support and partnership that added colour and structure to the event.
Further appreciation was extended to Oyo State House of Assembly members that represented Ogbomosoland for their acceptance and moral guidance throughout the competition, as well as to the Oyo State Commissioner for Youth and Sports, Hon. Wasila Adeqoke, for her support and commitment to grassroots sports development in the state.
Mr. Ado did not fail to recognise Allansmith CEO, Mr. Joshuah Adamu, alongside other sponsors, partners and well-wishers whose financial and logistical support contributed immensely to the smooth execution of the tournament.
He also commended all participating teams, match officials, organisers, volunteers and football lovers who embraced the tournament, describing their discipline, sportsmanship and enthusiasm as the true success story of Season 2.
Looking ahead, the Orumogege Football Tournament Chairman assured stakeholders and the general public of a more robust, well-structured and rewarding tournament in 2026, promising improved organisation, increased incentives and wider participation aimed at discovering and nurturing young football talents.
