"We are working on enlisting Ghetto Tigers to the Nigeria professional football league and anything that will bring more positivity to the club is what the Team Manager, Azeez Mustapha is doing.

You will agree with me that, football has become a huge business, so we will not limit our scouting of players to the local government alone. So we will look elsewhere so as to make sure, we fortify our club with the right players that will give us the desired result.

"Both our boys and girls team play in the divisional league and like what the chairman (Rasaq Ajala) said, we might just decide to go to the NNL but basically it's in the plan because we can't play divisional league forever. The long term goal is making it to the top tier of Nigeria football.

Ilupeju is an industrial estate and we have about seven to eight Indian players registered at the club, so for foreigners to actually believe in what you are doing, that means you are doing something right.
"The community have owned the club, Ghetto Tigers is now the love child of Odi-olowo Ojuwoye community. The residents even offer to pay the transport farea of some players when they meet, because they see the club as their own. So they have adopted us as the child of Odi-olowo Ojuwoye community.
