Omolaraeni added that: “we have been around for 16 years back-to-back, churning out excellent pictures to make people happy and is also 16th edition of the IGC Ladies open, so it’s quite interesting to us that it is like we’re doing our birthday.
“That was what excites us into coming to collaborate with IGC and commence our anniversary campaign with this event which we tagged: ‘Sweet 16’, and we’re going to organize a day golf kitty to celebrate it in July. It is going to be interesting because the game is going to be between lovers, either between you and your wife or between you and your husband, between you and your best friend or girl friend. It is about the couple, it is about friendship, it is about relationship”, she noted.
