The event billed to take place at the Nwankwo Kanu Sports Centre in Owerri will start from March 27 and through the forthcoming Easter holidays.
Speaking ahead of the event, the Arsenal legend said the tournament was put together as part of his health and wellness campaign for soccer aficionados in Owerri and environs.
