I see kOLLER FOOTBALL ACADEMY at the top level

Ogunlana Moruff Olamilekan Appoints As Koller Academy Patron

 _I See KOLLER FOOTBALL ACADEMY At The Top Level_ 

Mr. Ogunlana Moruff Olamilekan has been appointed as Koller Football Academy patron.

Mr. Moruff said many things about the Academy during an interview yesterday.

FULL INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWER.

*What can you tell us about the Academy and what really assisted your decisions to take the role of patron ?*

He said, “In life, is not about the longlity of how far you gone in life or how far you have gone in a relationship, what matter most is the vision that someone is having or holding”

“This vision I saw in Coach  Jibril, in his contribution towards developing undiscovered players from grassroots, which prompt him to organized  league games in the state  for kids so as to discover hidden talents.”

“Having seen that kind of  passion towards developing and  discovering of talent *(in life, if an economy wants to grow, you must invest in human capital, human capital is very key toward development of any economy or any nation, because it's talent that will bring in prosperity to the economy of any nation)* having seen that vision in him, and  having that same vision to support, to be with him, to encourage him so that, his vision can be actualize.”

“I've known KOLLER FA from while  but we have not close, I know them from distance and I have been seen some of the players, I  have been seen some of the league organised and the activities being carried out by Coach KOLLER, Having now offered me such role , I was confused of what I will do, because I was thinking of time, *(do I really have that time)* but having seen his seal , the vision toward that, I have to support him, that is what actually prompted me to accept the role, it's a huge role which required many things.”

“It's task role, I pray God guide me, with God on our side we will actualize that, we are go to achieve.”

He added, “I see KOLLER FOOTBALL ACADEMY at the top.”

I see KOLLER players playing in Europe, playing in oversea , playing so many league, recognize league apart from Nigeria league which I believe is the aim 

The vision of setting up the academy will never be in vain INSHALLAH

Be a patron does not mean that, only financial, financial, no!

There are some opportunity 

There are some advises, 

There are some things  that we can put together as a team toward acheiving that 

 When we talk about other football Academy today, for example if I don't know any other academy, I know beyong limit Academy in Ogun state,

 I have a friend there who happen to be a coach as well, 

We do talk. INSHALLAH, I will link the Academy to some  tournament outside the State so that our people can go there, to show their talents, and discovered them, move from there to achieve the aim and vision of the Academy.
