Ooni Ogunwusi Installed As Grand-Patron Of Kegites Club International (Pix) by unitysheart(m): 10:36pm On Mar 04, 2016 |
The 51st Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, Ojaja II, was on March 4, 2016 installed as the Grand Patron of Kegites Club International. The event held at one of the halls inside the palace of the Ooni at Ile Ife. Oba Adewusi thus joined Former President Olusegun Aremu Obasanjo as one of the Grand Patrons of the club. The event was attended by the creme de la cremes of the Supreme Comradium. One prominent name among those who attended the event is Doctor Peter Fatomilola. Doctor Fatomilola is a Nigerian dramatist, film actor, poet and prolific playwright. The installation rites was conducted by the AB Chief of the Kegites Club International World Headquarters, Obafemi Awolowo University, Chief Oluwagbemiga. He was ably supported by his fathers, Chief Odidiomo and Chief Saheed Olugeemol of the World Headquarters. Other notable Chiefs of the Kegites Club that were present are Chief Michael Adekan, Chief Teeto Richards and Chief Oluwo of Ilya Du tecco, yaba College of Technology. Oba Adewusi being the Grand Patron of the club has thus become one of the pillars of the supreme comradium. The kegites club or the palm wine club is the most popular socio-cultural club in the Nigeria. The club originated from the University of Ife ile ife (now known as obafemi awolow university). The club was formally formed in (1962). The club had its 1st chief in the person of PROFESSOR OLUSEGUN ADESHINA. Incidentally, since the formation, the club has undergone various kinds of transformations. For instance, the club had its 1st female member (okpeke) in the person of L.S.F DUKPE AJAY. She was the 1st female to join the club in (1968). In (1974), the club started spreading to other schools in Nigeria with Ilya Du Tractor (Federal College of Agriculture Akure Ondo State Nigeria) as the first Ilya to get a Keg of Office (accreditation) from the World Headquaters. While the first Ilya to get a Keg of Office in Imo-Abia hemisphere is Ilya du Kokoroko (Fed. University of Agric. Umudike, Abia State). In 1986, Chief ANTHONY UZODINMA OGIDI became the first and only Igbo man to be made a World Chief, and it was during his one year reign that the name of the Club was changed from Palm Wine Drinkards Club to Kegites Club International. This change was basically because members of the club were being connoted to be drunkards and irresponsible people. Kegites Club International has over 100 branches all around the world, including Ilay du Punjab in India, Ilya du Queen in England and Ilya do Windy in Chicago, USA. 14 Likes 4 Shares

Kegite was meant to be a social club for entertainment until some "Youth" entered the club and used it for other activities. 30 Likes 3 Shares |
