Among those to receive awards are Mr IK Edebiri, Chairman, Edebiri Sports Foundation, and Prince Obaseki Anthony, Vice Chairman, Benin Vipers FC, Edo State.
“Ex-national team players are also coming, including top club Team Managers and this year’s edition is loaded. I want to use this medium to thank all that gave us help during our national Federation Cup play-off. May the Good Lord bless you all,” ldahosa said.
