The Lagos State Football Association (LSFA) has indicated its readiness to partner with Tingo Drinks to enhance the Corporate Social Responsibility of the company and the development of football in the state.
Chairman of the association, Hajji Gafar Olawale Liameed, was among the important dignitaries who grace the launch of Tingo Cola, Ojaja Bitters and Tingo Electric Energy Drinks in Victoria Island, Lagos on Tuesday.
If the Lagos FA boss was a man of many words, he would have described the latest project of Dozy Mmobuosi – in the most colourful superlatives of adjectives.
Some of the projects: Tingo Mobile to provide mobile technology and Fintech solutions to rural communities in Nigeria. Tingo Inc., a publicly traded company on the OTC Markets Group and Nwassa, a digital Agri-Marketplace that is Africa’s first agricultural technology and digital platform.
“Mr Dozy Mmobuosi is an example of a real investor and we should all commend him for his contribution to the society at large,” the impressed and excited Hajji Gafar said to LSFA Media.
“I strongly believe that the projects launched today are great contributions to the national development of Nigeria. And that’s what the administration of His Excellency President Bola Ahmed Tinubu stands for.
Brimming with optimism, Hajji Gafar believes that the projects will secure future prosperity, pointing out that more investments by well meaning individuals would strengthen the social and physical infrastructure base of Nigeria.
It would be recalled that Dozy Mmbousi Foundation sponsored the NPFL/Dozy Mmobuosi Super 4 and Tingo Super 8 Cup in the past. The two tournaments were deemed successful by football stakeholders in Nigeria.
Hajji Gafar reiterated the LSFA’s desire to be a partner of Tingo.
“At LSFA we are partners in progress. This invitation by Tingo is a special feeling for us and we would like to take this relationship to the next level; as we line up numerous football programs for Lagosians,” he added.
Grinning with delight, Hajj Gafar, dignitaries like Ooni Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi (Ojaja II) and some eminent men of the society went on inspection of the facilities at the Tingo Place after the launch.
