Oh What a night at Agege stadium!!!
(After about 3 decades I finally experienced night life again as far as playing football under the flood light,the last time I experienced this was probably in 1982 when my father took me to the stadium to watch Water Corporation FC of Ibadan played at the Liberty stadium. the week 12 match of the Nigerian Professional League between MFM and Wikki Tourists of Bauchi offered almost thesame scenario and Im happy to relive my experience here..)

Anyway I'm likely not going to comment so much about the game itself since Super Sports is transmitting live.
Today I appreciate Former Governor Fashola who deemed it fit to create a conducive environment for sport especially football to thrive in Lagos state.
Not that I'm watching football here at Agege stadium for the first time at least I've been here thrice this season alone..
I've watched more football here in Lagos than in Ibadan.The point is I'm just appreciating the fact that everything is working well here at night.

The atmosphere is alluring..very clement for astro turf field which most Nigerian fields are made of..
Scintillating live game. No feet's are burning or hurting ,the norm experienced playing on astro turf under the scorching sun.
If you are a regular customer here at Agege stadium at least a decade ago..only then will you be able to appreciate whatever legacies Fashola has left especially in the area of football development in Lagos...
Looking at all these young men in Agege ..joking and playing with visitors as if you be know each other before..
Unlike before..Agege /Pen Cinema axis is now a tourist attraction..even at night..Aaaaaaageeeegeeee..of old..who born monkey???

What about lightening? i must give kudos to whoever that is managing Agege stadium..It reminds me of the West car park at the Heathtrow Airport where everything was bright and beautiful immediately I landed.
Drop a pin here you will find it..cars are neatly parked and im so happy been in Naija..
Last but not the least..its about MFM players..mostly from Agege..

This is truly a community based football.club..it has not only kept the restless Agege youth busy..it has also provided employment for people here..
Talents been discovered example is the scorer of tonights match Stephen Odey ..A boy who just left Dairy Farm Secondary School ,a school righ behind the stadium

Above MFM is preaching Christ through football..just check out there theme song..
Aaah who say nothing works in Naija..
For your informarion..LMC is working, Super Sports is working, Lagos State is working..

Aaaa..Eko baje ti.. Oyo nko?
