Amaju Pinnick has thanked Simba Group, distributors of TVS motorcycles and tricycles, for their close ties and support for Nigerian football.
The President of the Nigerian Football Federation recently visited the Group's head office in Oregun, Lagos where he presented a customised Super Eagles jersey to Manish Rohtagi, Business Head of Simba Group.
Speaking at the event, Rohtagi explained that the company, which is one of the country's most esteemed business groups, has been operating in Nigeria for more than 30 years.
He noted that within that time, the group has contributed significantly to the nation's economy while its portfolio of widely recognised brands, continue to dominate industries in which they operate.
The Business Head of Simba said the company has supported national football at many levels but officially became sponsors of the Super Eagles through their TVS brand of motorcycles and tricycles early 2018.
This recent ceremonial visit followed an event held in November, where Simba thanked the Super Eagles Head Coach, Gernot Rohr, for his team's efforts at the FIFA World Cup in Russia last summer.
Speaking at the event, Managing Director of Simba Group, Chief Vinay Grover, said: “We celebrate the success that the Super Eagles have had this year, and are also so proud of all the other national football teams, especially the Super Falcons and the junior teams representing our country. Our association with the NFF is very special, and we are honoured to be contributing to the development of the sport locally.”
