The conference is being planned by Rotary International District 9110, comprising Lagos and Ogun states, to coincide with Rotary International’s 100th anniversary

District Conference Planning Committee Chairman, Dr. Olajide Akeredolu, said this year’s conference would bring together Rotarians from all the 98 clubs in the District to celebrate the remarkable impacts made so far through humanitarian service projects funded by the Rotary Foundation over the years.

“This year’s conference is not the first one, either in Abeokuta or other parts of the District. In fact, it is the 35th edition to be held by District 9110,” he said.

“What makes it unique and historic is that it marks the 100th year of the establishment of The Rotary Foundation, which calls for fond reflections on the good works done so far by Rotarians, with the support of the Foundation as well as ample opportunity to reflect on the future,” he said.

According to him, over 2,500 Rotarians in the District will be mobilised to attend the conference, especially considering the fact that over 800 Rotarians had already registered for the event.
