The Board of Ondo State Football Association (FA), the statutory body responsible for regulating and overseeing all football activities in the state is releasing this statement for clarity sake before silence from the statement released by Ondo State Football Agency is taken for fact.
Especially, that the Football Agency stating that it had cleared the affiliation fees being owed to the state FA.
It should be on record that the FA is currently being owed outstanding affiliation fees by the Ondo State Football Agency.
The FA mandates that all football clubs and academies operating within the state must be duly affiliated, with annual dues paid as required.
The Ondo State Football Agency oversees three clubs participating in different leagues: Sunshine Stars (NNL), Sunshine Queens (NWFL), and Sunshine U-19 (Youth League).
For the 2024/2025 season, the agency accrued debts totaling ₦1,500,000 in affiliation fees.
The breakdown is as follows:
Sunshine Stars – ₦700,000
Sunshine Queens – ₦500,000
Sunshine U-19 – ₦300,000
Failure to settle these dues also attracted a penalty of ₦1,000,000, bringing the total for the season to ₦2,500,000.

Sunshine Stars – ₦500,000
Sunshine Queens – ₦1,000,000
