This Sunday, 9th December 2018, there will be a large
gathering of distinguished royalties, business personalities, top-rated
celebrities and representatives of blue-chip corporate organizations at the 2nd
edition of the Outstanding Dignitaries
Achievement Awards (ODAAWARDS 2018) holding at the Prestigious Oriental

Leveraging
on the outstanding success of the maiden edition of the event held last year,
the planning committee of the event and its main organizers, Rollicking
Entertainment Company are set to host another rewarding, scintillating and
fun-filled edition of the iconic annual event.
The
Annual Awards, like ever before, will provide a fabulous and chic platform to recognize
the business entrepreneurial contributions of Nigeria’s most outstanding
dignitaries who have played an instrumental role in the development and growth
of Nigeria in all spheres. Most importantly, it is designed as a great
opportunity to reward outstanding Nigerians who have contributed immensely to
humanity and economic development of the country over the years.
This
year, the award ceremony will feature music performances, a fashion show and
musical drama presentation/documentary
in celebration of Iyalode Efunporoye Tinubu, the first Iyalode of
Egbaland , who in her life time , was a politically significant figure in
Nigerian history because of her role as
a powerful female aristocrat .
According to Princess Olukemi
Egbeyode, the CEO of Rollicking Entertainment Company, "This year's
awardees have been carefully and rigorously reviewed and judged under one of
the most stringent and
objective awards systems in the country and were indeed winners before they were nominated and as
true winners, they should all be
proud of their
achievements".
She
further stated that that these outstanding awardees have ably represented and
contributed to the private, public and
community sectors in their various fields of endeavors, with each and every one
of them having being truly inspirational
and it is therefore a great honour to be able to
recognise and reward them through the ODAAWARDS 2018.
It will be recalled that the maiden edition, which held last year, had
notable royalties, guests of honour and iconic awardees, such as the Oni of
Ife, philanthropist Chief Kessington Adebutu and Chief Mrs. Nike Okundaye in
attendance.
This
year's edition which is billed to host over 500 guests will also have top
dignitaries such as Her Excellency, Mrs. Bolanle Ambode, First Lady of Lagos
State, and Her Excellency, Mrs. Olufunsho Amosun, First Lady of Ogun State as
matrons of honor while Dr. Idiat Oluranti Adebule, Deputy Governor of Lagos State
and Her Excellency, Chief Mrs. Yetunde Onanuga, Deputy Governor of Ogun State
as Special Guests of Honor, gracing the award night.
Some
notable awardees for the 2018 edition include Miss Ashiwaju EbunOluwa and
Honorable Balogun Ekundayo Olabode, The Chairman/C.E.O. Story TV Production and
Multimedia. While Aare AbdulGaniyu Abiodun Ige Adams, The Iba Aare Onakakanfo
of Yorubaland and Alhaji Musiliu Haruna Ishola Bello will be honoured with
Cultural Ambassador and Music Icon awards among others. The Royal Father of the day is Oba Adedapo Tejuosho,
the Osile of Oke-Ona, Egbaland while the Royal Mother of the day is Iyalode
Alaba Lawson, 4th Iyalode of Egba and 1st Iyalode of Yorubaland.
The

the organizers have adequately prepared to make the second edition a memorable
and more resounding event than the maiden edition as all guests in attendance
will be treated to a much richer and entertaining experience.
