In a build up to the 31st edition of Ikorodu Oga Day celebration, Ikorodu Oga development association (IKODASS) spearheaded a fitness walk on the 29th of October 2022.

The health-oriented walk which kicked off from Ikorodu ultra-modern town hall in the early hours of the day was initiated to crusade against drug abuse by youths in recent times.

Discerning drug abuse as a catalyst for promoting social vices across society, the association came out in mass, chaperoned by various youths and private organisations in the waterbed region to sensitize the general public on the dangers of harming medications.

With Mr Rotimi Erogbogbo, chairman, IKODASS leading the campaign, the walk routed through Ita-Elewa, to the ancient African Methodist church, coming through Ota-Ona and sprinted to Ikorodu roundabout before resting at the palace of HRM, Oba Kabiru Adewale Shotobi, Ayangburen of Ikorodu Kingdom.

Adding more colour to the procession, Bramraj Food and Beverages Nigeria Limited, makers of Erujeje, Blackwood Bitters, Yahuu Gin and Old Port Coffee Liqueur, partnered with Ikorodu News Network (INN) to join the trek.

In the message of His Royal Majesty, Oba Kabiru Adewale Shotobi, post-walk, Ikorodu, prevailing as the 12th largest city in Nigeria, has come of age and must attract every form of positivity to the soil for purpose of growth and expansion.

The King, thanking everyone for joining the crusade against drug abuse, urged youths to take their future into their hands by staying away from every form of negative influence.

“This is my 7th year on the throne, and even before becoming the paramount ruler of Ikorodu kingdom, I’ve been an integral part of Ikorodu Oga development association”.

“Celebrating the 31st edition of Ikorodu Oga day is monumental and it shows that we’ve come a long way to prosperity” Oba Shotobi added

The event runs from the 12th to the 19th of November 2022.
