He said the commission, after duly considering a deluge of memoranda submitted, noted that Rangers being a big brand in the football business should enjoy and leverage on this.
“This can only be, by lifting the burden of sponsorship from the state government.’’
Okolie disclosed that the commission also suggested that the club’s ownership should be spread to other South-East states and other lovers of the club.
“Thirty-five per cent of the shares will be reserved for the Enugu State Government, while 32 per cent will be for the four states of Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi and Imo at 8 per cent each.
“Twenty-five per cent will be for the general public, six per cent for the Amalgamated Traders Association, one per cent for Rangers Supporters’ Club and one per cent for Ohaneze Ndigbo.
“This is what was suggested by the commission headed by Prof. Gab Agu,’’ he said.
Okolie also said the formation of Rangers’ female football club and basketball team were equally recommended by the commission.
“This is for maximum benefits to be gained by the shareholders and teeming youths of the states in particular and the nation in general,’’ he said
