VOMOZ Mobile, one of the largest Telecommunication
retailing Service company in America has joined other brands to partner with
Gold Cup Pre-season Tourney to support the organisers with cash and awards for
outstanding players.
Sportsbiz247.blogspot.com reports that the telecommunications firm will take full responsibility
for the Man of the Match, Most Valuable Player and Highest Goal Scorer Awards
with cash incentives.
This is a pipeline of investment that would redefine
local football development, fans' participation and sponsorship across the
country and African continent.
Olatoye Olawale Vomoz Mobile Representative said in an
interview after the partnership agreement in Lagos on Thursday; "We
thought it a way of giving back as one thing that unites Africa is sport with
the major one being Football.
"So Vomoz Mobile as an indigenous American company
has found out that it can facilitate bringing in foreign investment to sponsor
football in Nigeria and Africa at large," enthused Olatoye.
He added, "Also, we want to invest in African sports
because, 95% of our customers in America are Africans and they're using our
services.
"People don't know they can actually sponsor event
back home and they're not going to do it until they see a formidable company
like Vomoz Mobile do stuffs in Nigeria, then they will become interested."
General Coordinator of the tourney, Tunde Shamsudeen,
said; "This gesture from Vomoz Mobile is commendable, it shows that
Nigerians in the diaspora still follow our domestic league.
"I hope to see more of their participation in
subsequent editions."
