The moribund Olubadan Stadium is now wearing a new look ahead of the commencement of Ibadan Football Association League 2019 season schedule for Saturday.

A trip to the stadium revealed massive development taking place all at the same time, after the monumental edifice had been shut down from football action for almost five years by the Oyo FA.

Right from outside, the wall fence was being painted, while gardeners were also clearing the surrounding weeds. Pipes were being laid round the pitch for continuous and steady wetting of the newly re-grassed football pitch.
