We want to make Ondo State proud. Football is the king of sports, and we aim to make it big,” he said. Agbajeola added that the camp helped the team settle quickly and maintain motivation while representing the state.

Meanwhile, swimmer Mojisola Giwa expressed confidence in her preparations, citing improved fitness, teamwork, and readiness to compete at the festival. “The preparation has been good and we are grateful for the support. As for me, I am ready. I believe we will come back with medals,” Giwa said.
