The President of Ibadan Recreation Club 1902, Dr Adesoji Tayo has joined others to endorse Oluyole Expo 2023 billed to hold between December 15 and 31 at the club’s expansive playing ground.
Dr Tayo said the man behind the event that is dedicated to creating memorable experiences especially fostering of community engagement and business growth, Mr Semiu Adenekan (also known as DJ Semight), is a strong member of IRC 1902.
“Like any other member, Semight will have all our support. It is his right. Moreover, we are delighted that the event will also promote tourism as well as other economic activities.
“In addition, we will give him all the support he needs to ensure that he records a huge success since it is the very first edition of the event that promises an unparalleled extravaganza, and it will bring together businesses, families, and communities.
“We believe that Oluyole Expo 2023 equally will serve as a melting pot for networking, leisure, and discovery. And these are some of the values we hold high at the Ibadan Recreation Club 1902. So, those planning to attend will surely have a good time.”
Dr Adesoji Tayo gave these submissions while featuring on Parrot Xtra/Ayekooto Live anchored by Olayinka Agboola and broadcast on Splash 105.5fm in Ibadan recently.
The IRC President also used the opportunity to express appreciation to all members of the club for cooperating with him to ensure the progress and uplift of the club.
“IRC 1902 is a club of equals. We all pay the same subscription fees and the fact that I am president does not give me any special status. I am there to work with others as a team and that, we have been doing. God has been helping us.
“Today, all our sections are in top conditions. We have a new gym that is fully equipped, our main bar that we christened ‘Seyi Makinde Bar is the best in this part of Nigeria. I can also boast of our swimming pool. It is the very best around.”
Dr Tayo also used the opportunity to advise parents to take time to train their children.
His words “We are no longer training our children the way our parents trained us. When a child says no, I am not going to carry out an assignment. Our usual reaction is to keep quiet and allow the child’s decision to stand. This is not good enough.”
