Tuesday, 6 February, 2024 was yet another glorious day for the Olu Araromi Eleranigbe monarch, Oba (Dr) Abdulhammed Adejoro Ajijola as he was presented with an award of recognition by the Lagos State branch of the Estate Rent & Commission Agents Association of Nigeria (ERCAAN).
The award was presented by the association chairman, Hon. Bisi Ogunneye at a modest but colourful ceremony held at the monarch’s residence in Ogudu GRA, Lagos.
Hon. Ogunneye noted that Oba Ajijola was being recognized for his diligence, commitment and contributions to the growth and development of Araromi kingdom.
Indeed, the monarch has been the leading light in the development agenda of the riverine community through his pain-staking efforts at attracting investors, industries and individuals to take advantage of the massive investment opportunities that strategically position Araromi Eleranigbe as an investment destination of choice in the state.
This is coming on the heels of the massive economic development currently on-going in the Ibeju-Lekki axis of the state with the setting up of Dangote Petrochemical & Refinery, Lekki Deep Seaport, Lekki International Airport, 4th Mainland Bridge etc.
Responding while receiving the award, Oba Ajijola thank the association for finding him worthy of the recognition, noting that the socio-economic development of his community naturally appeals to him.
“The development of Araromi Eleranigbe is forever uppermost in my mind and it naturally appeals to me and that is why I spare no effort at ensuring infrastructural development of our community.
“Through this award of recognition, I am greatly inspired to do more not just now but for future generations,” Oba Ajijola said.
