The Benin City Youth Football Club Owners Association has praised the nomination by the Edo state government of former Edo Football Association Chairman, Frank Ilaboya, into the board of the Edo State Sports Commission.

In a message signed by the Chairman of the Association, Douglas Idahosa, the association stressed that the nomination of Ilaboya is an attestation of his professionalism and impartiality as a sports administrator.

The message, addressed to Ilaboya, partly reads: “No doubt, your time as a board member of the Edo State Sports Commission will take Edo State sports to greater heights.”
