The Chief Executive Officer of Monimichelle Group, Ebi Egbe has offered to fix both the Abuja and Lagos national stadiums in 8 months if given the opportunity.
Egbe said his company would not need a humongous amount of money as currently being brandished in official and unofficial quarters.
The Bayelsa State born stadium construction expert said it is regrettable that the country is not tapping the full potential of the technical expertise of his company that has its corporate headquarters in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State.
“When it comes to this stadium construction business, I can tell you we are one of the best not just in Nigeria but Africa. I can beat my chest to say that and the jobs we have done across the country attests to that. At Monimichelle, we don’t cut corners. We are very professional in our approach to our jobs. This is why I am close to tears when I see the state of our national stadiums in Abuja and Lagos.
“Truth be told, we can actually fix the playing turf, tartan tracks, seats, scoreboards, Public address system and all the Auxiliary works that gives a stadium the pass mark from FIFA and CAF for high profile games of both stadiums in 8 months. And we are capable of doing this with something far less than the figures I see being bandied around. The job we did at the Onikan waterfront (MJA Arena) is there for everybody to see,” Egbe said.
He noted that the end users, players and coaches from different parts of Africa including the FIFA President and CAF President have given Monimichelle kudos after attending the opening ceremony of the FIFA/CAF Dr. Aisha Buhari International invitational tournament for six of the best African female teams at the MJA Arena.
