The campaign team of Oluchi Tobe-Chukwu got a major boost at the weekend as two former chairmen of the Lagos state chapter of the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN), Fred Edoreh, and Niyi Oyeleke together with the incumbent chairman, Debo Oshundun, endorsed the candidature of the versatile broadcaster in her quest to become the Vice Chairman of the noble association.

"Tobex comes with passion and commitment to SWAN as demonstrated through her involvement in various Lagos SWAN activities, including serving in the last Electoral Committee as well as in SWAN Cup sometimes.

“She also comes with some experience in administration and organisation of football, and therefore capable,” Edoreh posted on Godwin Enakhena-led WhatApp group, Sports Journalist Forum (SJF).
