The Acting General Manager, Mr Niyi Soleye has appealed to Ogun State government to provide the state-owned football team with a-42 seater bus and other incentives to boost their morale ahead of the 2023/2024 Nigeria National League, NNL season.

Mr Soleye made the appeal when he received the newly elected executive members of Sports Writers Association of Nigeria, Ogun State Chapter at club's Secretariat, MKO stadium, kuto Abeokuta.

The Acting gateway united general manager who described the bus being used since 2011 as outdated attributed the inability of the team's failure to pick the ticket to the elite division of the league to logistics.

He announced that arrangements had been concluded for the resumption of the players in preparation for the new season.
