The former 400m athlete previously served as LSAA’s technical director.

While appreciating his service to the state, LSAA chairman, Solomon Alao described the olympian as a forerunner, saying he was the brain behind the state’s developmental programme.

“With his guidance, the Lagos State Athletics Association hosted more competitions than any other body across the nation, and was directly responsible for competitions, especially the Deji Tinubu Lagos series, for over 50 athletes getting scholarships to the United States,” he said.
