The Chairman of Gboko Local Government, Hon. James Kachina who did the unveiling called on football enthusiasts in Benue State to emulate Flight Transport Company’s drive for youth sports development.
He said by sponsoring the club, the company had helped in taking many youths off the streets.
Responding, the Director of the Company, Dr. Akor Andiir Gur pledged his full support for the team as he said he wants to bring back the lost glory of Gboko in the game of football.
He said he has seen so many Kpakors, Amir Angwes, Ngobuas and Dominic Iorfas and in the nearest future Gboko will once again be the hub of football in Nigeria.
A former BCC Lions and Super Eagles player, Dominic Iorfa represented by Coach Finbar Yanmelu pledged his unalloyed support for Flight FC.
In addition, he unveiled the jerseys with the sum of N200,000 with further pledge to always entertain the club’s needs.
Ex-internationals like Dondo Avaa and Timothy Anjembe also graced the occasion which was held at the company’s corporate office in Gboko.
