Amiesimaka heads committee to restructure Sharks, Dolphins

By Daily Sports on January 16, 2016

Former Nigeria international Adokiye Amiesimaka has been appointed to head a six-man committee saddled with the responsibility of producing a blueprint aimed at reorganising Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) club, Dolphins FC and Nigeria National League (NNL) club, Sharks.

The blueprint will subsequently be scrutinised by the sponsors of the clubs via the Rivers State sports ministry with the aim of charting a more positive course for the 2015/16 football season.

Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) Executive Committee member, Barrister Chris Green, will serve as a member of the committee.

Other members of the committee include the National Vice President of the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (South-South), Honour Sirawoo; Chairman of the Sharks FC supporters club, Isaiah Ogolo and Chairman Dolphins FC supporters club, Franklin Owhor.

The Director (Administration), Rivers State Ministry of Sports, Austin Ezekiel Hart, will serve as secretary of the committee.

Speaking on the development on Friday, Rivers State sports commissioner, Honourable Boma Iyaye, explained that the move will produce positive results for the two clubs in the days to come.

“The government is looking at reorganising the two Rivers State-owned football clubs and this is one step towards achieving that.

“We have painstakingly selected six individuals who have proved themselves in football administration to suggest ways through which we can make these clubs more marketable and successful,” Iyaye told supersport.com.

The inauguration of the committee will take place at the Conference Room of the Rivers State Ministry of Sports on Monday, January 18, 2016 by 11am.
