Chairman of the association, Olatutu Oladunni, led a couple of the members and some veterans to the private residence of the founder of Premier Lotto where they were well received amid pomp to celebrate the man who Nigerians regarded as an industrialist, an astute businessman and a philanthropist to the core.

To Lagos SWAN, Chief Adebutu’s continue support to the development of sports in Nigeria is what other very important personalities in the country should emulate.

Sir Kessington Adebutu has been a father to many, he has always offered his unrelenting support anytime I call on him. Heartly cheers to a dearest father and icon,” Lagos SWAN chairman said.

A big beautiful and well-designed frame with the picture of Sir Adebutu in it was presented to the Grand Patron at the occasion. 

Meanwhile, Erelu Kuti IV, Erelu Abiola Dosunmu commended Lagos SWAN for the beautiful recognition and honour they have bestowed upon Sir Kesington and she expressed her joy for the role Oladunni has been playing alongside her executive committee towards sports upliftment in Lagos.

The Chairman of Kotco Group of Companies, Aare Kola Oyefeso said Lagos SWAN has been more professional with good corporate outlook in the last one year, especially since Oladunni took over the mantle of leadership of the association.

“Olatutu is more or less my daughter, and thank goodness, she has amazing exco who they all work together as a team. For me, SWAN Lagos chapter has been revived and it has come to stay. We appreciate the wonderful presentation they did, and Sir Kessington values it dearly too,” Chief Osifeson remarked.
