Abolore Hails Kwara United’s Victory, Applauds Governor AbdulRazaq’s Investment in Sports
The Commissioner for Agriculture and Rural Development, Dr. Afees Abolore Alabi, has congratulated the government and people of Kwara State on the inspiring victory of Kwara United Football Club in the 2025 President Federation Cup Final, held at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena in Lagos. He described the moment as a powerful demonstration of what focused leadership, institutional support, and collective discipline can achieve.
According to Dr. Alabi, Kwara United’s victory—coming 49 years after the club’s last appearance in the final—goes beyond sporting success. It symbolizes the reward of deliberate planning, steady investment in youth, and a renewed sporting culture that now defines the State.
"Today’s victory is the fruit of years of preparation—on the pitch and in the stands. It reflects Kwara’s renewed confidence in sports and shows what is possible when purpose meets planning,” the Commissioner stated.
He attributed this progress to the strategic leadership of Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, whose investments in sports infrastructure—particularly the transformation of the Kwara State Stadium Complex—have provided the foundation for growth. Dr. Alabi also highlighted the Governor’s personal presence at the final as a significant show of moral support that boosted team spirit.
Flowing from that leadership is the work of the Kwara State Sports Commission, which Dr. Alabi described as pivotal in repositioning Kwara in national sports. He commended its Chairman, Mallam Bolakale Adisa Mogaji, for his vision, consistency, and hands-on coordination in driving performance and visibility across sporting disciplines.
Dr. Alabi also praised the coaching crew, management, and support staff of Kwara United, whose professionalism and unity of purpose guided the team through a remarkable campaign to this well-earned milestone.
With this victory, Kwara United has secured a place in the upcoming CAF Confederation Cup, further elevating Kwara’s presence in continental football and showcasing the results of sustained sports development.
The Commissioner urged all Kwarans to see this victory as a unifying moment—and a clear signal of what is possible when leadership, planning, and community passion work in harmony.
