In a press statement issued to newsmen via WhatsApp, Ejiofor insisted that it is quite regrettable that as millions of Nigerians battle record inflation, stagnant wages, and deepening poverty, it is unconscionable that Wike is indulging in such a misplaced priority which he framed as a public engagement.

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the game was played at the training pitch of Remo Stars in Ikenne at the ongoing 2024 National Sports Festival in Ogun.
