Local Organising Committee, LOC, of the Governor’s Cup Lagos Tennis Championship is full of praises to the former governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the incumbent Governor, Babatunde Raji Fashola for their support in staging the tournament since inception.
Chairman of the LOC, Chief Pius Akinyelure, said: “We are eternally indebted to two juggernauts for their unflinching encouragement, support and confidence in all our endeavours. First, former Governor Tinubu in whose regime and on whose behalf this championship started. And our sports loving incumbent governor, Raji Fashola, for having lifted the championship to higher levels. We pray that God would continue to guide, guard and uplift them in every possible way.â€
Akinyelure also praised the major sponsors, Etisalat Nigeria and FCMB Plc., and other co-sponsors for their support.
“Our traditional supporters like Julius Berger Nig. Plc., LASACO Nig. Plc., Lagos Internal Revenue Service, LIRS, and particularly, our new, big, and generous sposnors, First City Monument Bank Plc, FCMB, and Etisalat Nigeria which have signed a five-year contract with us from 2009, deserve all the encomiums we can give them,â€Â he said.
