Supporters of Arsenal F.C. in Surulere, Lagos, are vigorously planning to shake the Nigerian metropolis as they hold their Victory Parade on Monday, May 25, 2026.
A similar party was held by Nigerians living in Atlanta, Georgia, United States, with former Senator Dino Melaye as the special guest.
Held at Redroom Lounge in Atlanta, the glamorous red-carpet event blended football, nightlife, music, and African entertainment culture.
The Lagos event has been widely circulated online and signed by “Arsenal FC Supporters Surulere.”
Several security and emergency response agencies in Lagos State, including the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), the Department of State Services (DSS), the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), and the Lagos State Traffic Management authorities, have been notified to help manage the huge number of people that will be involved in the victory parade.
Arsenal remains one of the most widely supported football clubs in Nigeria, with strong fan communities across Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, and other major cities.
