According to a press release issued by the Director, Public Image of the club, Rotarian Segun Adebowale, the cheque was presented to the Iyaloja of the Isolo Obada Market Men and Women, Alhaja Wosilat Yusuf Saka by Past Assistant Governor, Dipo Onabanjo.

 “At Rotary Club of Ikeja, we have always been supporting indigent traders of Isolo Obada Market for many years and we can confidently say that the beneficiaries have never failed to pay back the loans.

 Today, we are yet again for the second time in this 2022/2023 Rotary year presenting interest-free loans of N25,000 each to 20 beneficiaries of traders in Isolo Obada Market.

We must commend the leadership of the Iyaloja and we will also ensure that we do not rest on our oars in supporting these indigent traders.’’
