The State Football Association who lambasted the activities of ODSFA, says the agency has “as a result of its overzealousness, taken over virtually al statutory responsibilities of the State Football Association.”NaijaSportsXtra gathered in a communiqué issued after its meeting of Thursday last week, and signed by the Chairman, Otunba Sunday Dele-Ajayi, and the Secretary, Mr. Tunde Fagite, summoned Akinbobola to appear before it or risk severe sanctions.
The resolutions include: that management of ODSFA has consistently disobeyed and disrespected the Ondo State Football Association; that the ODSFA as a result of its overzealousness has taken over virtually all statutory responsibilities of the Ondo State Football Association; that ODSFA has constantly refused to recognize the State FA in almost all its activities and; that ODSFA has for years, refused to fulfill its statutory financial obligations to the Football Associations.
Other charges are: that ODSFA has consistently masterminded hooliganism, thuggery and violence on and off stadium and; that ODSFA has a matter of urgency should produce ‘Ogaga’, who championed the disruption of NPFL match between Sunshine Stars and Lobi Stars that led to the banishment of the the team to Lagos and a year ban placed on Ondo State Sports Stadium, Akure.
Failure on the part of Akinbobola to comply with this directive, the Ondo FA warned, would invite appropriate sanctions that would be invoked on his in line with FIFA, CAF and NFF statutes.”
