Oluremi Tinubu Launches Girls in Golf Project in Abuja

On November 4, Nigeria's First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, unveiled the Girls in Golf Legacy Project, which aims to introduce 300 girls to golf across Nigeria's six geopolitical zones. This initiative was announced at the opening of the 2026 All Africa Challenge Trophy (AACT) held at the IBB International Golf and Country Club in Abuja.

Tinubu praised the Ladies Golf Association of Nigeria (LGAN) for their efforts and emphasized the importance of sportsmanship and integrity among the participating golfers. She highlighted the championship's theme, "Uniting Africa Through the Greens," which reflects golf's potential to foster friendship and unity across the continent.

LGAN President Dr Lami Onai Ahmed noted that hosting the championship for the third time is both an honor and a responsibility for Nigeria, aiming to strengthen relationships among African countries through golf. The Girls in Golf Legacy Project is part of LGAN's long-term commitment to growing the sport and inspiring young girls.
