ACCEPTANCE SPEECH BY BCN WALE SHODEINDE AS 4TH BEACONS CLUB CHIEF

I stand before you today to accept my election as the Chief of The Beacons Club International. I am grateful for the trust and confidence you have reposed in me, and I pledge to work tirelessly to promote our club’s values and objectives as laid down by our past leaders.

To the immediate past leadership of Chief Ola Aigoro, I express my sincere appreciation for your dedication and service. The selfless commitment of our pioneer Chief, Chief Wunmi Bankole has laid a solid foundation for us to build upon. I commend the efforts of our second Chief, Chief Ayodele.

As your New Chief, I promise to create an inclusive and vibrant club environment where everyone feels valued and empowered to contribute. We will work together to promote socio-cultural, economic development, and community engagement.

I wil listen to your concerns, ideas, and aspirations, and work closely with the club’s executives to develop and implement programs that benefit our members. I am committed to transparency, accountability, and good governance. We’ll ensure our club’s finances are managed prudently, and our decisions are guided by fairness, equity, and justice.

I ask that you hold me accountable for my actions and decisions. Our top priority amongst others will be to engage in affiliating our club with great noble clubs like the Ijebu ode club, Abeokuta club, Lagos country club, Lagos Tennis Club and Ibadan club to have more presence in the community and enjoy thier recreational facilities.

Thank you to my family, friends, and supporters for your love, encouragement, and guidance. To our esteemed guests, I welcome you and thank you for your hoping to have you as members in the nearest future.

As we move forward, we’ll build on our predecessors’ successes, learn from their experiences, and strive to exceed their expectations. We will uphold our club’s values and traditions while embracing new ideas and perspectives. Let’s join hands to build a brighter future for our dear beacons club as we move forward together in unity and solidarity.
