Olagunju Damola, also known as Richway, is a shining example of a young philanthropist and businessman who is dedicated to giving back to his community and making a difference in the world of football. Hailing from Ede, Osun State, Damola has been actively involved in supporting football initiatives in his hometown, and he has grand plans to expand his contributions to the entire state of Osun.

As the owner of Richway Music in Ede, Damola is deeply committed to his community and actively engages in various charitable events to support football.

This endeavor is already underway, showcasing Damola's dedication to fostering local talent and providing opportunities for aspiring footballers in his community.

It's worth noting that the adoption of the name "Athletico Madrid" for the team Damola sponsored was part of a larger competition organized to promote supporters' clubs of various teams worldwide. The competition, known as the Ede Football Fans Competition, saw supporters of different clubs like Enyimba FC, Chelsea FC, Arsenal FC, and Remo Stars FC coming together. Damola's sponsorship of this competition highlights his commitment to uniting football enthusiasts and supporting the growth of the sport at the grassroots level.

In a recent interview, Damola expressed his pride in supporting the Osun State Football Association and his willingness to contribute to various events that the association requires sponsorship for. He understands the importance of investing in football infrastructure and development initiatives, particularly during these challenging times.

Looking ahead, Damola aims to be directly involved with football governing bodies in Osun State and Nigeria as a whole, driven by his unwavering love and passion for the game. His ambition extends beyond sponsorship and includes becoming a key figure in football administration in Ede, Osun State, and Nigeria at large. By actively engaging with football at different levels, Damola seeks to leave a lasting legacy and create positive change within the sport he holds dear.

In line with his vision, Damola has taken the initiative to organize and sponsor the RICHWAY U-14 Classic Tourney, a tournament exclusively powered by him. This event will provide young footballers with an opportunity to showcase their skills and passion for the game, further nurturing their growth and potential. Additionally, he plans to sponsor RICHWAY BOYZ FC EDE in the upcoming 17th Free Age Unique Egalitarian Soccer Championship, scheduled for the second week of August 2023.
