Majekodunmi described the gesture as a demonstration of Governor Abiodun’s commitment to sports development and motivation for the nation’s most successful women’s football team ahead of their 2026 WAFCON Qualifier second-leg clash against the Amazons of Benin Republic at the MKO Abiola International Stadium, Kuto, Abeokuta.

“I want to sincerely thank His Excellency, Prince Dapo Abiodun, for his exemplary leadership and passion for football,” Majekodunmi said.

“His generous support to the Super Falcons shows true appreciation for their sacrifices and achievements, and it sends a powerful message to our youth that excellence will always be recognized in Ogun State.”

The Ogun FA Chairman also called on residents of the state and football lovers across Nigeria to troop out in large numbers to cheer the Super Falcons as they take on Benin Republic on home soil.

“This is our home, and these are our girls. Let us fill the MKO Abiola Stadium with energy, colour, and unity. I assure everyone that Ogun State will provide the best of hospitality and security to make this a memorable experience for both players and fans,” Majekodunmi added.

He further praised the Governor’s ongoing efforts to transform the MKO Abiola International Stadium into a modern sports and tourism hub, saying it reflects the government’s vision of making Ogun a leading destination for sporting excellence.

“The return of international football to Abeokuta is proof that Ogun is ready — not just to host, but to lead.
