A former star of the defunct Stationery Stores Football Club of Lagos, George Hassan has called on organizers of the Soccerex seminar to hold the event more frequently and spread it to other parts of the country.

Osaile who was at the seminar as head of a delegation of Experience Sports Facilities Limited, Nigeria’s sole representative of Mondo Spa, a global leading FIFA recognized artificial turf and sports facilities manufacturers told Sports Vanguard that the Soccerex seminar was a welcome development.

“The programme is very enlightening and listening to the speakers, one will easily know that we are not running football in Nigeria. It will be good if those who run football in our country were here to learn.”

He continued, “I wish this kind of programme was holding two or three times in a year and taken to other parts of the country so that the game can grow. With the way things are now there can never be progress in our football.”

He said the organisation he represents, Mondo Spa had constructed over 800 artificial turfs around the world and hoped to maximise the business opportunities on offer at the seminar.
