For his contributions to the growth of the Golf Section of Ikoyi Club 1938, the outgoing Golf Captain, Wahab Aminu-Sarumi has gotten high praises from appreciative members of the section, as he rounds up his tenure on Saturday with the usual Captain’s Day Golf tournament tagged WS 2024.
Former chairman of the club, Demola Mumuney, who described Aminu-Sarumi as a performer, hailed his steadfastness and determination in uplifting the section, saying his tenure had been a memorable one. Another former club chairman and a Trustee of the Club, Rear Admiral Toye Sode (retd.) and other sectional leaders, who graced the closing ceremony, acknowledged Sarumi’s accomplishment over the past 12 months.
Reacting, Aminu-Sarumi said, “I give God the glory for making this day possible. I thank Him for my modest contributions and accomplishments. I have always believed in doing the right thing even though it might not be popular.”
While thanking his committee members for their support throughout his tenure, Aminu-Sarumi said he’s particularly grateful for not disappointing those who made his election possible.
