Owolewa in the statement reminded the new commissioner of the enormous challenges in the sports industry in the State which include deplorable conditions of some of the facilities at the Kwara Stadium Complex, Ilorin.

The statement urged Miss Kolo to ensure Kwara United sustain its Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) status at the end of the 2019/2020 season while she also gives necessary support to other teams in the State.
The body called on the new commissioner to ensure that the state contingents to the 2020 National Sports Festival in Edo State experience good preparations ahead of the events.
The statement assured the commissioner, the readiness of the association to ensure she gets the needed publicity to make her work easier and focus on Public-Private Partnership (PPP) to develop the sector.
