The Emir of Ilorin and Chairman Kwara State Traditional Rulers Council, Mai-Martaba Alhaji (Dr) Ibrahim Sulu-Gambari CFR, has rejoiced with the newly elected national leadership of the Ilorin Emirate Youths Development Association (IEYDA) on thier emergence.
This is contained in a statement issued on Tuesday by his spokesman, Mallam Abdulazeez Arowona.
Alhaji Sulu-Gambari described the brand new Executive Council Members of IEYDA as proud Ambassadors of the Ilorin Emirate as reflected in their numerous programmes for Youths, Women, Orphans and Vulnerable persons for the past 10 years.
The Emir specifically congratulates the outgoing National President, Alhaji Abdullahi Salaudeen, for the laudable leadership qualities injected into the association which promotes cohesion, peace and development among inhabitants of Ilorin Emirate and beyond.
He however expressed confidence in the in-coming Executive Council under the leadership of Alhaji Uthman Jagunmo adding that, “He performed excellently well in his previous position and I have no doubt in his ability to take IEYDA to a greater height during his tenure.”
The Emir therefore thanked IEYDA for the smooth selection of new leaders and appealed to governments at all levels as well as private individuals to continue to support them in their desire to support the less privileged in the society.
