In yet another demonstration of his unwavering commitment to the growth and cultural preservation of Ibadanland, Oloye Adegboyega Taofeek Adegoke FCA, the Aare Egbe Omo Balogun of Ibadanland and Mogaji of Abosé Compound, has contributed N10 million to support the construction of a befitting hall and office complex for the Association of Mogajis.
The project, named Ile Eke, is envisioned to be a world-class complex that will serve as a central hub for Ibadan indigenes both at home and abroad.
It will also play a vital role in preserving the rich cultural heritage of Ibadan, a city renowned for its historical significance and traditions.
The name “Eke,” symbolizing the Mogajis’ unity and leadership, reflects the profound cultural essence the building aims to uphold.
Oloye Adegoke made the generous donation during his visit to the Oke Aremo Palace of the Olubadan of Ibadanland earlier today.
He was warmly received by the President of the Mogajis, Mogaji Asimiyu Ariori, and the Secretary, Mogaji Odugade, alongside notable Mogajis including Mogaji Koso, Mogaji Agbo Bere, Mogaji Sangodoyin, and Mogaji Alago, Mogaji Moganna.
In his remarks, Mogaji Asimiyu Ariori expressed deep appreciation for Oloye Adegoke’s consistent support, noting that this latest act of generosity is part of his broader dedication to the development of Ibadanland.
“This is not the first time Oloye Adegoke has shown his love for Ibadanland,” Mogaji Ariori stated.
“He has consistently been a source of support and inspiration to us all. His contributions are helping to shape the future of our great city.”
The Ile Eke complex, designed to meet international standards, is expected to serve multiple purposes, including hosting important meetings, fostering collaboration among the Mogajis, and promoting the development of Ibadanland.
It will also stand as a symbol of cultural pride and unity for Ibadan indigenes across the globe.
Oloye Adegoke, known for his philanthropic activities and dedication to community development, continues to be a driving force in advancing initiatives that uplift the people of Ibadan.
His latest contribution underscores his commitment to preserving the city’s unique cultural identity while fostering growth and progress.
As the construction of Ile Eke is ongoing, the Mogajis are optimistic that the project will further enhance the cultural and social infrastructure of Ibadanland, ensuring its legacy as a beacon of Yoruba heritage and pride.
