Omeruo said that the establishment of an Academy would create a generation of great football stars.
He said: “I have been around the football circles and I have never seen such investment. This will equip the upcoming players with skills and education.
“Initially, when I heard that the Governor was to set up an academy of this nature, I thought it was a mere promise. But I am happy that it has become a reality. I don’t know of any place in Africa where we have such an academy.”
He urged Wike to continue investing in sports, especially football as a way of empowering less privileged children.
Responding, Wike expressed happiness with the contributions of Kenneth Omeruo to the successes of the national team.
