By 3:00pm tomorrow, UI will breathlessly watch as the Baluba lions tussle with the Sultans of Bello Hall in the final lap of the Inter-hall football competition.
Defeating Kuti and Tedder Hall in the preceding matches, Zik Hall has stamped the appellation, ‘terror of the field‘ on the sands of the SUB pitch. Ahead of tomorrow’s final onslaught, the Sport Minister, Akande Peter (A. Peter), has given the statement defining Zik Hall’s mission.
Alluding to Zik Hall’s team success, he reiterated that,
“Paying a keen attention to our hall’s anthem, it is audible to the deaf and visible to the blind that we are the terror on the field (KING OF UI FOOTBALL) and this has not been just a motivation but also a major force behind our success thus far.”
Looking back on antecedents and the encouragement from supporters, he observed that,
“Our predecessors have been a great source of inspiration while we strive to surpass the enviable legacy left behind by them. Also, the supporters club have really been a big motivation and I say a very big thank you to them all.”
A. Peter has now emphatically stressed the mission of the team,
“During my manifesto I made mention that we are coming with nothing less than silver but right now I’m telling you it’s either GOLD OR GOLD.”
