The founder of Remo Stars Football Club, Hon. Kunle Soname, has applauded the management of Newstap publication and the leadership of Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN) for counting him worthy to be among the five eminents Nigeria to be conferred with the 5 -Star Award scheduled to take place on  March 7th at the Eko Club, Lagos.

While receiving the award letter in his office at the Remo Stars Stadium, Ikenne Remo, Soname said what he has been doing is to secure the future  especially in the area of youth development.

According to him, whatever anyone is doing to develop the youth and the community, such people will gain  from it in  the future.

“I want to thank the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria and the Management of  Newstap  Media  for considering me for this award. I’m sure that you are quite aware that I’m not really a man for the stage, but I particularly like this because it’s coming from  organisations I respect so much. I want to thank you for considering me worthy . I  promise that we will continue to do what we have been doing.

He further  stated “I don’t even consider it as doing much for people. I think it is more of doing it for myself.    Money you don’t spend on youth development, you’ll end up spending it on security. So if you organize programmes, schemes, infrastructures that will keep the kids busy and take them off the streets, you are actually protecting yourself.  Some of the kids that you’ve taken off  the streets might actually  have been  those that will haunt you later in life if you had  not taken them off the street. So whatever you are  doing in youth development, you are doing it for yourself,  your security  and safety. So I honestly don’t think I need any award for what I’m doing because I’m doing it for myself.”
