In a recent interview, Gossy Ukanwoke, the CEO and Managing Director of BetKing, shared insights into the journey of Ikorodu City FC during the challenging start of the 2024/2025 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) season. Despite facing tough opponents like Kano Pillars, Enugu Rangers, and Nasarawa United, Ikorodu City FC, a newly promoted club, remains committed to excellence, backed by BetKing’s unwavering support.
Ukanwoke emphasized the importance of this partnership, which began in 2023. “At BetKing, we embrace the fact that every great team experiences setbacks. Ikorodu City FC is no different. We are proud of their journey and, despite the challenges, we stand firmly behind them. Our partnership is rooted in a shared vision of growth and success, and we are dedicated to helping Ikorodu City FC reach new heights in Nigerian football,” he stated.
Sanmi Doherty, the Club’s CEO and Chairman, shared his enthusiasm about the team’s progress. “This season, we’ve put together the youngest squad and coaching staff in the NPFL. Many of these talented individuals might not have had the chance to compete in Nigeria’s top league if it weren’t for Ikorodu City. We owe a significant part of our success to BetKing’s support, and we believe this youthful squad will make history this season. We will fight for points in every match, bringing passion and determination to the field.”
As Ikorodu City FC navigates its NPFL campaign, the collaboration with BetKing remains strong, ensuring the club has the necessary resources to compete and thrive at the highest levels of Nigerian football.
