The president of Jewels Football Academy Sir Ikechukwu “best man” Aaron, popularly known as ‘nwalo’ has challenged the players of Jewels Football Academy to always judiciously utilize every opportunity that is visible to them.
In his goodwill statement, while addressing the lads at the mainbowl of the community secondary school ohanze, in the aftermath of below par performance shown in a friendly match against highly rated okigwe based supreme kings academy where jewels lost 3 nil, the revered football philanthropist reiterated how imperative humans should always take responsibility of opportunities in the course of one’s life pursuit, stressing that unpleasant circumstances which is bound to be seen in the journey of life should not be a “habitat” for ambitious minds, rather resolving to break the odds is a worthwhile pathway.
The generous ohanze born football fanatic opined that opportunity helps young people to rediscover themselves and realize dormant potentials in them via a self-determination and actualization, adding that opportunity creates in young people the feeling that their life is worth living and they can achieve remarkable things, he finally concluded as he enjoined them to eschew the philosophy of “dwelling in failure” rather it should be a stimulant to taking up new challenges in their quest to making fortunes through football as a profession.
