Star singer Wizkid and rapper Naeto C
have been announced as ambassadors of Eko Football, a Lagos State
soccer festival which will be holding its first event in September 2012.
A few months ago, the Lagos State Football Association
(LSFA) announced that the first Soccerex event in West Africa, the
Soccerex Seminar Lagos would be hosted in Lagos; the Eko Football
Festival will also take place in Lagos; coinciding with Soccerex Seminar
Lagos this September.
Organizers say the Eko Football Festival
will be a first of its kind event in Nigeria, where football and the
entertainment industry will converge. The plan is to improve the level
of football tourism in Nigeria.
And in order to deliver a successful event, LSFA recently announced their partnership with media company Storm 360.
‘Storm 360 is extremely proud to be
the producers of the very first annual Eko Football Festival and look
forward to a long and positive association with the Lagos State Football
Association. And with Wizkid and Naeto C ready to support this we feel
that the Eko Football Festival will be an amazing event to bring
football back home to the fans in Lagos State’, Storm 360 C.E.O, Obi Asika says.
The festival will take place from September 27-30, 2012.
