“Adedotun Olusanya’s seminars on Sports Governance are an eye-opener. Drawing from recommendations from his works “Reforming FIFA-Inside Out” and “Beyond Sports Governance”, at NASEF South-Africa, we are currently adapting our governance model after his recommendations. We believe this is necessary if we must avoid historical mistakes that FIFA and the IOC has made in the past”

Marc Joubert :

South-African Convener of the Network of Academic and Scholastic Esports Federation-NASEF

“Olusanya’s crusade about sports governance especially the abolition of the independence doctrine has been consistent. The debacle in Ghanaian, Liberian, and Sierra-Leonian FAs in recent times only buttresses his recommendation that a tiered prosecutorial system and suspension of extradition rights are non-negotiable if African football must move forward.” 

Dounard A. Bondo,

Journalist and Lawyer (Liberia)

“African teams have performed poorly at international football competitions not as a result of lack of talents but due to corruption in our football. I am happy that important stakeholders in African football are here and I am yet to hear any contradictory view on why Adedotun Olusanya’s suggestion about allowing sovereign courts to have jurisdiction over governance matters in football should not stand.”

Joseph Hanson

Kwesé Sports (United States and Ghana)

“ Adedotun Olusanya is my go-to lawyer on any football-related legal issue that impacts African players that I work with in my many years of coaching in Belgium. He always come up with solutions that suits the players, their families and the club. I make sure I don’t fail to connect to any of his virtual seminar series on Sports Governance”

“ We owe Barr. Olusanya an eternal debt for his seminar series collaboration with us. The seminar-series which is attended by the players, administrators and parents portrays us as club that truly cares about the welfare of its players. We can thank Barr. Olusanya for placing us in that unique position” 

Olajide Akinyelu,

“I have covered Aftican sport teams at major sporting events including the FIFA-World Cup and the Olympics, African teams have performed badly due to bonus rows at major events… the persistent message Barr. Adedotun Olusanya reiterates at seminars in Nigeria and Ghana deserve very serious considerations and implementations by African football member-associations. This would certainly ensure the growth and viability of the sport and African football leagues.

Desmond Decker,

“Adedotun Olusanya is a household name in Nigeria. His passion for achieving effective governance that would transform the lives of athletes and African nations is second to none. He has been consistent with his call for sovereign governments and corporate sponsors being the biggest pressure point in achieving the desired change in global football governance that would impact Africa.”

Mr. Kehinde Adebayo Ojelowo,

Oyo State Football Association Secretary,

(Nigeria)

“In my extensive years of representing footballers and football organisations in the West-African territory, Barr. Olusanya has made a remarkable impression in the field of Sports Law and Governance. He has always advocated passionately about sports governance and how it affects growth of the football industry”

 Eby Emenike,

FIFA-Licensed Agent

(United Kingdom)

“The seminar led by Mr. Olusanya and the suggestions he has made will ensure accountability in West African football… African governments must follow his suggestions of lobbying FIFA to recognize that they fund sports in Africa, and requesting for accountability from FA is not tantamount to political interference.”
