Speaking ahead of the festival, Akinbulejo Onabolu, Chairman of the Ikoyi Club Swimming Section, said: “The first edition was a resounding success, inspiring confidence in the potential of our young athletes. With this second grand slam, we aim to deepen the culture of swimming as a sport in Nigeria and to provide more children with the opportunity to compete in a healthy, structured environment. Quomodo Systems Africa’s support has been pivotal in sustaining this vision, and together we are building a platform that can one day produce world-class champions.”
Also commenting, Mr Oluwole Asalu, Chief Executive Officer of Quomodo Systems Africa, noted: “Our passion for this initiative is rooted in the belief that today’s investments in young people will shape tomorrow’s leaders.
