Star singer Wizkid and rapper Naeto C have been announced as ambassadors of Eko Football, a Lagos State soccer festival which will be holding its first event in September 2012.

A few months ago, the Lagos State Football Association (LSFA) announced that the first Soccerex event in West Africa, the Soccerex Seminar Lagos would be hosted in Lagos; the Eko Football Festival will also take place in Lagos; coinciding with Soccerex Seminar Lagos this September.

Organizers say the Eko Football Festival will be a first of its kind event in Nigeria, where football and the entertainment industry will converge. The plan is to improve the level of football tourism in Nigeria.

And in order to deliver a successful event, LSFA recently announced their partnership with media company Storm 360.

‘Storm 360 is extremely proud to be the producers of the very first annual Eko Football Festival and look forward to a long and positive association with the Lagos State Football Association. And with Wizkid and Naeto C ready to support this we feel that the Eko Football Festival will be an amazing event to bring football back home to the fans in Lagos State’, Storm 360 C.E.O, Obi Asika says.

The festival will take place from September 27-30, 2012.
